3. Setting printer’s IP address
The printer’s information is listed in the main interface, the left side of which is the model and description and the right side are the IP address and MAC address. What’s more, the assign mode (dynamic/static) is noted behind the IP address.
1) Correlative description for IP address settings
In order to search and set printer’s IP address conveniently for the first time, the factory default
setting is DHCP mode which assigns IP address dynamically. If there is no DHCP server in the connected LAN and printer is set to DHCP mode as well, then it will use the internal pre-set address (IP: 10.0.0.1, Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0) automatically.
It is suggested that printer’s IP set to static in actual usage, which can cut down the time when
initializing the Ethernet interface as the printer is turned on and prevent IP conflicts (The dynamic address used in printer may conflict with another one). The network segment part of the IP address and Subnet Mask must be the same as those of PC connecting with a printer. For example, the address of working PC is 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 (IP/Subnet Mask),then which of printer should be set to 192.168.0.x/255.255.255.0x=2~254 and should avoid the IP in used.
It is not restricted for NetFinder to search printers in the same network but different segment parts (can not stride gateway). Relative glossary of IP address may refer to relative information.
2) Setting printer’s IP address Select the printer information to be modified (black frame appears), click “Assign IP” button. Set
the IP in the dialogue box appearing.
Page 22
EC-PM-80320 User's Manual
- 16 -
Check the “Use DHCP” if needed to assign dynamic address, the settings above will be disabled automatically. Please make sure there is a DHCP server in the network, or the printer can not receive an effective IP address.
When to specify static address, uncheck “Use DHCP” and fill in “IP address”, “Subnet Mask” and
“Default Gateway”. If there is no gateway in the network, fill 255.255.255.255 in the “Default gateway”. “IP address” and “Subnet Mask” should obey the assigning rules of local LAN (Ethernet), please enquire the administrator of networks which the printer connects to for more details.
Click “OK” to send address setting information to the specified printer. The printer takes response after “Close this window on success” is checked, and then this dialogue is closed automatically. Select “Reload Timer” then the software will wait for the printer’s response. Generally, printer will take response in a circle time if network connection is correct.
Click “Cancel” if you abandon the modification. Click “Search” in the main interface again to update printer information after modifying the
printer’s IP address.
3) Report printer’s IP address Report the printer’s IP address, which will be used in the section “Newly-install printer network
driver” or “Upgrade-install printer network driver (setting driver’s network port)”.

(1) Printer-equipment connected printing
Printer-equipment connected printing is a way of printing which uses printer as the hotspot and connects the wireless equipment for printing.
“Wireless Settings” is the relevant setting parameter when the printer is as the hotspot (as shown in
Figure 6). In the printer-equipment connected printing mode, the parameters of the wireless equipment must match that of the printer so as to make the communication successful. Please record the relevant parameters and input them in the wireless equipment correctly.
After you finish resetting the parameters in the setting column, click “Apply” on the upper side of “Update Firmware”. Then the countdown interface of saving the modification appears and the wireless equipment can conduct communications with the printer as soon as the countdown is over.
Description in “Wireless Settings”
BSSID: The address of the printer wireless card in the “Wireless Settings”, which is the MAC
address (Valid when it’s in printer-equipment connected printing).
Network name (SSID): The network name of the printer wireless card. You can modify it if
necessary, but you have to connect the network again after modifying.
IP Address: The IP address of the printer wireless card. You can modify it if necessary, but you
need to enter the browser with the new IP after modifying.

recommended).
SSID: The Wi-Fi name of the current hotspot.
Security mode: Select the corresponding security mode according to the hotspot setting.
Encrypt type: Select the corresponding encrypt type according to the hotspot setting.
Acquiring and Setting the Security Mode and Encrypt Type
There are three ways to acquire security mode and encrypt type:
(1) Get the security mode and encrypt type according to the corresponding network information
given by the network administrator
(2) Find them by entering the router of hotspot with the administrator’s account.
(3) Find them through Windows operating system and the steps are shown below (Take WIN XP

Chapter 3 Control Panel
3.1 Control Panel
There are three LEDs and one key on the control panel shown as Figure 3-1.
3.1.1 LED
LED Description
POWER (Green)
Denotes whether the printer’s power supply is connected or not. The LED is on when the power is connected.

PAPER OUT (Red) Denotes printer’s paper status. The LED is on when paper out or is about to end.
3.1.2 Key
Key Function
FEED
FEEDcontrols paper feeding, you can enable or disable the button’s function with a
command. When enable, the paper will be fed continuously if you hold on pressing it, or stop if you loosen it.
3.2 Self-test Printing
Self-printing lets you know if the printer is working properly. If the printer printouts the self-test content normally, it denotes that there is nothing wrong with the printer except for the interface which connecting to the computer. Otherwise, the printer should be repaired.
Hold on pressing the FEED key and turn on the power switch while the printer cover is closed, the ERROR LED blinks once with two beeps (if beeper is installed in the printer), loosen the key, then the printer will print out self-test information such as the software version, update date and interface etc.

Chapter 6 Troubleshooting and Maintenance
6.1 Maintenance
To prolong the printer’s life, make sure that the printer is well away from heaters and other sources of extreme heat, and the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
Cleaning paper holder and thermal print head periodically is the only necessary task of maintaining the printer. We will talk with this problem in this section. It is noted that make sure to turn off the printer before maintenance.
Cleaning the Printer:
Printer is damaged mostly by dust and dirt. Wiping off the wasted paper in the printer and cleaning the accumulated dirt in the thermal head despite the outer case of the printer prevents greater part of dust from invading.
Cleaning the Printer Case:
Remove the dirt in the printer case with clean, soft cloth, and take out the wasted paper with a nipper.
Clean the printer periodically according to the prescription as follows. Periodical cleaning: Every 6 months or 300 working hours once Cleaning tool: Dry cloth (Soft cloth if metal parts)
6.2 Error Message on the Control Panel
When the malfunction occurs, the printer will be off-line and give an alarm through LEDs. You can make out different malfunctions through Table A-4 as shown below.
Table A-4: Error message on the control panel
6.3 Auto-Cutter Jammed or Error
When the auto-cutter is jammed by paper, please open the upper cover of the printer and remove the jammed paper. If the upper cover can not be opened, as well as the auto-cutter still can not return to the normal position after the printer is restarted, please pull out the front cover which locates above the auto-cutter to expose the auto-cutter. Then turn the gear in the arrow direction. If the gear can’t be moved in the arrow direction, don’t force it, please turn it in the reverse direction until the auto-cutter returns to the normal position. As shown in Figure 6-1.
