2-1-4. RS232/ USB Mode Selection
2-1-5. Near End of Paper Sensor
RS232 or USB mode will be chosen via software automatically after
the first character is received. At power-up, both RS232 and USB
communications are active. If the first character is received on the
RS232 port, the communication will be RS232, and vice versa for USB.
This first character will be interpreted like any other incoming byte into
the printer.

2-5. Paper Loading
Chapter 2
12
With the green head-up lever in the down position, insert the paper
inside the printer, and then the roller will automatically feed the paper
for about 40 mm. If the printer has a cutter, the cutter will cut the paper
after the loading. The Printer is then ready to print. This function can
be achieved only if power supply is more than 18 volts.
In mark detection mode, the paper is fed forward to the TOF position.
Put the green head-up lever in the up position. Manually feed the
paper into the printer until it exits between the thermal head and the
roller. Turn the green lever to the head-down position.
Paper loading can be achieved by two different methods:
l Automatic paper loading:
l Manual paper loading:
