Operation Mode When Battery is Low
The printer acts differently depending on the remaining battery charge and the operation mode when battery is
low.
The printer has two modes and is initially set to the mode 1.
• It is recommended to replace or charge the battery when the remaining battery charge goes
down to the level L.

Error Status
When an error occurs, the printer stops operating, goes offline, and the Error LED flashes.
There are three possible error types: automatically recoverable errors, recoverable errors, and unrecoverable
errors.
Automatically Recoverable Errors
Printing is no longer possible when automatically recoverable errors occur. They can recover easily, as described
below.
Error LED flash code
Error Error description
Tem p erat ure
error
The temperature of the
print head, motor driver
IC, or battery is high.
Recovery measure
Recovers automatically
when the temperature
goes down.
Recoverable Errors
Printing is no longer possible when recoverable errors occur. They can be recovered easily by turning the power
off and then on again or sending an error recovery command after eliminating the cause of the error.

Autocutter does not work
correctly.
Recovery measure
Send the error recovery
command, or turn the
power off and on to
recover.

The error recovery command is valid only if a recoverable error (excluding automatically recoverable errors) occurs.
21
Unrecoverable Errors
Printing is no longer possible when unrecoverable errors occur. If the same error occurs again even after turning the power back on, contact qualified service personnel.
Immediately turn off the power and remove the battery when unrecoverable errors occur.
CAUTION

Error Error description
R/W error in memory After R/W checking, the printer does not work
correctly.
High voltage error The power supply voltage is high.
Overload error The temperature of the print head or battery is
extremely high or low.
CPU execution error The CPU is executing an incorrect address.
Wireless communication unit error
Internal circuit error Internal circuits are not connected correctly.
Wireless communication does not work correctly or the wireless communication unit is disconnected.

Chapter 1 Product Overview
NV Memory (Non-Volatile Memory)
The printer's NV memory stores data even after the printer power is turned off. NV memory contains the following memory areas for the user:
• NV graphics memory
• User NV memory
• Customized values and memory switches
• User-defined page
• Maintenance counter
As a guide when you program applications, NV memory should be rewritten 10 or fewer times a
day.
NV Graphics Memory
Graphics, such as shop logos to be printed on receipts, can be stored. Even if communication speed is low, high
speed graphic printing is possible.
Use the TM-P60II Utility to register graphics. You can also print and confirm the registered graphics in the TMP60II Utility or NV graphics memory print mode.
1
• For detailed information about the TM-P60II Utility, see the TM-P60II Utility User’s Manual.
• To use the NV graphics memory print mode, see
page 50
.
"NV graphics information print mode" on
User NV Memory
You can store and read text data for multiple purposes, such as for storing a note including customizing or
maintenance information of the printer.
Use ESC/POS commands to store and read the text data.
For detailed information about ESC/POS commands, see the ESC/POS Command Reference.
23
Customized Values and Memory Switches
With the customized values and memory switches, which are software switches for the printer, you can configure various settings of the printer.
To set the customized values and memory switches, see
"Software Settings" on page 42.
User-defined Page
You can store character data in the user-defined page (character code table: page 255) so that you can also print
characters not resident in the printer.
Maintenance Counter
With this function, printer information, such as the number of lines fed, the number of autocuts, and printer
operation time after the printer starts working, is automatically stored in NV memory. You can read or reset the
information with TM-P60II Utility, the Status API of the APD, or OPOS ADK to use it for periodical checks or
part replacement.
• Maintenance counter values can also be checked with TM-P60II Utility or by executing a selftest.
• Maintenance counter values are usually saved every two minutes except in the power saving
status. However, if the printer power is turned off by removing the battery or using up the battery charge, the latest maintenance counter will not be saved. For detailed information about
ESC/POS commands, see the ESC/POS Command Reference.
24
Chapter 1 Product Overview
Useful Functions for Smart Devices
You can easily connect this product to the network by using the NFC tag built-in to the printer or the QR code
printed on the status sheet.
NFC Tag
Bring a smart device that supports NFC close to the NFC tag to acquire the printer information (information
for specifying the device).
Specify the target printer using the acquired information to connect to the network.
QR Code
Capture the QR code printed on the status sheet with the camera on your smart device to acquire the printer
information (information for specifying the device).
Specify the target printer using the acquired information to connect to the network.
1
• Programming using Epson ePOS SDK is required to use these functions. These functions are
created by combining NFC touch and QR code capturing operations and the target printer
specifications using Printer Easy Select API.
See the "Epson ePOS SDK for Android/iOS User's Manual" and the Epson ePOS SDK sample
program for more details. The sample program also contains a sample implementation method for
reading an NFC tag and capturing a QR code.
• You can try a demo of these functions by using Epson TM Utility for iOS/Android.

Installing the Printer
You can install the printer horizontally or vertically. You can also carry it using the belt clip on the back of the
printer to hang the printer on your belt.
• When you install the printer vertically, only the orientation shown below is available. Do not
install the printer upside down.
• When you install the printer horizontally, it is recommended to remove the belt clip. Remove
the two screws fixing the clip to remove it.

Notes on Using the Wi-Fi Models
• Keep the printer away from the devices, such as kitchen microwaves, that may cause radio wave interference.
• Use channels that are away from the frequency bands that may cause radio wave influence.
• Place shields between the printer and the devices that may cause radio wave interference.
• Select either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, whichever is free from radio wave interference.
• In auto channel setting for the access point, do not select a channel in which the printer may cause radio
wave interference.

Changing the Paper Width
<Spacer>
The printer is initially set to print on 58 mm {2.28"} width paper. If you use 60 mm {2.36"} width paper, remove
the spacer installed in the printer. You can also install it again to use 58 mm width paper.
• Do not increase the paper width after you have used a narrower width because if the printer
has ever beenused with narrow paper, part of the head contacts the platen. Therefore, when a
wider setting is used, part of the head or the cutter blade may be worn out, which can cause
poor printing and a blunt cutter blade.
• When changing the paper width, be sure to change the setting for the paper width with the
customized value. To set the customized value, see
"Software Settings" on page 42.
