Online and Offline

Online

When no events to go offline have occurred, the printer is online and ready for normal printing.

Offline

The printer automatically goes offline under the following conditions:
•During power on (including resetting with the interface) until the printer is ready
•During the self-test
•When the roll paper cover is open.
•While roll paper is fed using the Feed button.
•When printing stops due to end of paper. (When
or the printer is set so that printing stops upon detection of roll paper near-end.)
• Macro execution standby state
•When an error has occurred
the roll paper end sensor detects the end of paper

customized value.
Follow the steps below to install the roll paper guide.
Once you change the paper width from 80 mm to 58 mm, you cannot change it back to 80 mm.
To set the customized value, see "Setting the Memory Switches (Customized Value)" on

Adjusting the Paper Roll Near-End Sensor

Adjustment screw
Pos ition ing plate
Detection lever
Below are two situations where a roll paper Near-End sensor adjustment is required.
•To adjust the detection position to suit the diameter of the roll paper core used.
•To adjust the detection position of remaining amount of paper.
Since roll paper cores vary slightly in shape, depending on paper roll design and
manufacturing tolerances, it is impossible to detect the remaining paper exactly.
Use roll paper with a core inner diameter of 12 mm {0.47"} and outer diameter of 18 mm
{0.71"} so that the Near-End sensor can detect the remaining paper as accurately as possible.
Follow the steps below to adjust the roll paper near-end detector.
Open the roll paper cover, and remove the roll paper.

Functions

Setting the paper width
•80 mm (initial setting)
•58 mm
Be sure to install the roll paper guide when you select the 58 mm paper width. (See
"Changing the Paper Width" on page 33.)
Once you change the paper width from 80 mm to 58 mm, you cannot change it back to
80 mm.
Setting the print density
Selectable from “Depends On Dip Switch”, or levels 1 to 13 (70% 130%)
When the print density is set to "Depends On Dip Switch" (Initial Settings), the Dip switch settings are applied. With other settings, the customized value settings are applied.(See
"Functions" on page 31.)
Setting the multiple tone print density
Selectable from levels 1 to 13 (70% 130%) (initial setting: level 7)
First change the print density, and then configure the multiple tone print density.If you set the density too high, the contrast becomes lower. Select the density level
checking the overall tone balance of your image.
Setting the print speed
Selectable from levels 1 to 13 (Slow Fast) (initial setting: level 13)
Depending on print conditions, such as print duty and print head temperature, print speed is automatically adjusted, which may cause white lines due to intermittent print (the motor sometimes stops). To avoid this, keep the print speed constant by setting it lower.

•When specified pulse 2 (5 pin) occurs
Setting the number of head energizing parts
•One-part energizing (initial setting)
•Two-part energizing
•Four-part energizing
Usually, the number of head energizing parts does not need to be changed.The maximum print speed can be performed only when one-part energizing is selected.

Setting the power supply unit capacity
Selectable from levels 1 to 3 (Low High) (initial setting: level 3)
When a problem such as a low voltage error and power shutdown occurs due to the print pattern or
the power supply environment, you might work around the problem by setting the power supply
unit capacity.
If you cannot solve the problem by setting the power supply unit capacity to "level 1", you can try
reducing the print speed, increasing the number of head energizing parts, or revising the print
pattern (reducing the print volume).
Setting the automatic paper cut
•Not use this function (initial setting)
