2. The Printer
The MSI IR3 is a thermo printer with infrared data transfer. It is designed for fast documentation of measured and
calculated values of the measuring instruments from Dräger MSI.
To do this, there has to be activated " MSI Printer " in the " Adjustment Menu " of the used instrument (see instruction manual of the instrument). In other case the printing is done with normal velocity (velocity of used printers with
infra red data transfer).
The printer can be used also with older MSI 150 (Joker, Basic, Classic, etc), in this case the printing is done with
normal velocity of course.

3. Functions and User Instructions
3.1 Printing
When the status indicator is off, the printer is off. A brief press of the mode button turns the printer on, the status
indicator will illuminate and the printer mechanism will reset. Another brief press of the mode button will turn the
printer off again.
Gets the IR interface information from the measuring instrument (see "Instruction Manual" of the used instrument
chapter "Printing") the printout starts. Attention the beam between the infra-red ports of the instrument and the
printer should not be obstructed.
After extensive printing the print head temperature may rise to an unusable level. If this occurs the status indicator
will flash twice repeatedly and printing will be suspended until the head temperature returns to normal levels.
The printer will automatically detect when the printer paper has run out. The status indicator will flash repeatedly to
denote that the paper has run out. Turn the printer off and fit a new roll as described in chapter 3.4.
3.2 Power on self test
The self test procedure will check most of the printer functions, except for the infra-red interface, i.e: printer mechanism, control circuitry, firmware version and print quality.
If the printer is off, press and hold the mode button for approximately 2 seconds. Release the button, the printer will
power on and print a self-test report.
3.3 Power save mode
The MSI printer IR3 incorporates a power save mode which minimizes the printer power consumption after approximately ten minutes of inactivity. Further data transmitted to the printer will be ignored.
The printer can be re-activated by pressing the mode button.
