(2) Power Switch Power is supplied to the printer by turning this switch on.
(3) Power Lamp This lights up when the power switch is “ON” and goes out when turning
“OFF”.
(4) SEL / ALARM Lamp This lights up when the printer is in SELECT state (ON-LINE) and goes
out when in DESELECT state (OFF-LINE). The pr inter can print out the
data only when this lamp is on.
This lamp may blink on the following occasions.
a) When the paper roll in coming to near-end, the SEL / ALARM lamp
keeps blinking at interval of 1.0 second.
In this case, change the roll paper.
b) When the printer is in alarm state, this lamp keeps blinking at
interval of 1/4 second. Remove the cause for alarm and press the
SEL switch. (or re-switch the power on)
(5) LF Switch
Paper feeding is performed when this switch is pressed (in DESELECT
status only), this is used when inserting the paper and for spacing up etc.
(6) SEL Switch
When this switch is pressed, the printer enters SELECT (ON-LINE)
status. When
ressed again, the printer enters DESELECT (OFF-LINE)
status.
This switch is also used when clearing an alarm condition.
And if this switch is pressed when printing, the printer enters DESELECT
status, after all the data in the buffer is printed.
(7) I/F Connector
Connects through a cable to a computer etc. Please be certain that power
to both the
rinter and the computer are turned off when connection is
made.
