INTRODUCTION

The TM-U300C-U300D and TM-U300PC/U300PD are compact, light-weight printers, designed to provide the highest possible performance to cost ratio.
The main features of the printers are as follows:
l Compact size and light weight l High-speed printing using logic seeking l High reliability and long life through the use of stepping motors for both carriage
return and paper feeding
l Two print colors (black or red) l Selectable paper feeding increments for various print formats l Command protocol based on the ESC/POS l Internal drawer interface that can control two drawers l Two character fonts (7 X 9 or 9 X 9) l Semi-automatic paper loading l Compact AC adapter l 1 line validation printing l Roll paper take-up device (for the TM-U300C and the TM-U300PC)
The table below describes the differences between the TM-U300C/U300D and
TM-U300PC/U300PD printers.

Turn on the printer. The POWER LED goes on.
While leaving some slack in the paper roll, insert the end of the roll paper
straight into the paper inlet. The printer automatically feeds the roll paper into
the printer (semi-automatic loading).
Press the FEED button to continue feeding the paper until it extends about 20
cm (8 inches) beyond tear-off edge.
Remove the side board of the take-up spool and insert the end of the roll paper
(or journal paper when using 2- or 3-ply paper) into the groove on the take-up spool. Wrap the paper around the spool two or three times and then replace the side board of the take-up spool.

Remove the take-up spool from the printer. (If it is necessary, cut the paper go-
ing to the take-up spool, using the tear-off edge.) Then remove the roll paper core.
If there is roll paper remaining, cut the paper straight across using scissors at
the place shown in illustration below.

When the paper near-end detector senses that the paper is almost out, the printer turns on the PAPER LED. The PAPER LED also turns on when the paper is com­pletely out or paper roll is not installed.
Because the paper roll core size differs depending on the paper roll, you may need to adjust the paper near-end detector location.
Make sure the paper core inside diameter is 10.5 to 12.5 mm (0.41 to

NOTES:
1. Since the adjustment values in the Table 3-1 are calculated value, there may be some variations depending on the printer.
2. If roll paper with a red end mark at the paper end is used, this mark may cause the paper to stick together.If this occurs, the paper near-end detector may operate incorrectly.
3. Be sure that the detecting lever operates smoothly after you finish the
adjustment.
4. If the roll paper becomes loose due to the paper quality, the paper near-end
detector may operate incorrectly.

3-4 Inserting a Cut Sheet (Validation Paper)

Be sure to use a validation paper that matches the printer’s specifications. Refer to Appendix A, Specifications.
Check that the paper is not wrinkled.
Using creased or wrinkled paper may
cause a paper jam.
Check that the paper roll is already installed.
If not, install it first.
CAUTION:
l
Printing with no roll paper installed in the printer may cause damage
to the print head pin.
After checking that no validation paper is inserted, turn on the power switch. The POWER LED light goes on.
Using printer control command, select validation paper mode. The PAPER
LED begins blinking.
Insert the paper straight into the printer using the guide marked with an A in the
following illustration.
CAUTIONS:
l When printing on copy sheets, make sure the glued (fixed) edge is
positioned as shown in the illustration above.
l
After you insert validation paper, do not move the paper. Moving the paper
may cause the paper to slip.
21
n
Notes on printing on validation paper
l
The printer can print only one line on validation paper. Printing is performed by the print commands, but the paper is not fed. Therefore, double-height printing cannot be performed on validation paper.
l
Printing on the validation paper must be performed when roll paper is loaded. However, printing is affected by the total thickness of the paper.
l
The validation paper should be flat, with no curls, folds (especially no curls or folds at the edges), wrinkles, or warps. Otherwise, the paper may rub against the ribbon and become dirty or the paper could catch on the ribbon.
l Select multi-ply paper carefully because the gluing conditions (glue quality,
gluing method, glued length etc.) and the position of the glued area affect paper insertion; insert the validation paper so that the glued position is on the left or top edge of the paper as seen from the front.
l
Insert paper from the top as shown in the following figure.
l
When the optional validation detector is installed, do not use validation paper with holes (e.g., sprocket holes) in the area shown below or the paper detector does not work correctly.
