1.5.1.5 Adjusting the Roll Paper Near End Sensing Position

The paper near end detector detects when the paper is almost gone by measuring the diameter of the Roll paper. If you want to change the amount of paper remaining when the printer stops printing, follow the steps below to adjust the

paper near end detector.

Note: If the inner diameter of the Roll paper core is more than 26mm (1.02 inch), the Roll paper near end detector may

not work properly.

1. Open the printer cover and remove the rewinder. 2 Determine the point on the Roll paper at which you want the near end detector to be triggered. Then measure the distance

A shown in the illustration.

OP425_02.eps

Note:There may be some difference between the measured distance A and the actual sensing position.

3. Find the corresponding adjustment position number from the table below. Distance A Adjustment position number 4 mm (0.16") #1 6 mm (0.24") #2 8 mm (0.32") #3 11 mm (0.43") #4 19 mm (0.75") #5 26 mm (1.02") #6

Note:Above values are applicable when the inside diameter at the core of the Roll paper is 10 mm.

4. Loosen the detector screw with a coin or screwdriver.

5. Set the detector scale to the position you determined from the table by moving the detector screw up or down. The

numbers #1, #2, #3... are not marked on the detector scale.

2.4 Hex Dump Function (Receipt)

This function converts received data, as it is, to character codes, and prints it in the Receipt mode. The printed contents are as follows: Upon receiving one byte, the printer divides it into three characters, High-nibble, Low-nibble and a space. Regarding these as 1 block, the printer prints 8 blocks in one line, then, prints the same data in the character format.

Upon entering the HEX dump mode, the printer prints “Hex Data Dump”. (Title printing)

2.4.2 How to Print

1 If it does not receive data after 150ms have passed since receiving last data, the printer starts printing (CR) if it has some

data. (If there is not enough data to form 8 blocks, spaces will be used.) If it subsequently receives data, the printer prints from a position next to the position at which the printing started.

2 If it receives the I-PRIME signal (Parallel model)/Reset signal (Serial model), the printer starts printing if it has some data,

then feeds one line. Then, the printer is initialized. (If it does not have any data, the printer feeds one line and then is initialized.) After the initialization, the printer starts up in dump mode again and prints. The line number is reset, however, and counting begins from “0000”.

* When I-PRIME signal (Parallel model)/Reset signal (Serial model) is hard reset (setting by Short Plug with Parallel I/F

board and by DIP SW with Serial I/F board), it immediately starts initialization and does not continue hex dump. 3 One line-feed is added for every 16 lines. 4 The count begins from “0000” when the line number exceeds “FFF8.”

2.5 Using the MICR Reader

If your printer has the factory installed optional MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) reader that enables the printer to read and process MICR characters on personal checks, read this section.

Note 1: If Cut-sheet Paper or Sprocket Paper has been loaded, eject it before you use the MICR feature. This does not apply

to the Roll Paper.

Note 2: When the Tractor (Option) (1) has been installed, remove or park the Sprocket Paper, then switch the Lever to the

Cut Sheet side (1) from the Sprocket side (3)

o425_50.jpg

Note 3: When using a MICR-version machine, align the marks “¶” and “Ä” as shown and set the paper along the paper

guide.

Note 4: Use a flat Check Sheet. If you use Check Sheets that are dog-eared, have wrinkles, or are wavy, they are more likely

to cause a paper jam, scan failure, or damage to the MICR Head.

How to use the MICR Reader

1. Send the command “FS a 0 n” from the host computer. Then the printer shifts to the MICR Mode and waits for the Check

Sheet to be inserted. LED3 blinks slowly in orange (repeats 1 sec ON, 1 sec OFF).

2. Insert the Check Sheet with its magnetic ink print surface up and the magnetic ink print area to the right side of the

direction of insertion, butting it against the right side of the printer. The printer feeds the Check Sheet and reads at the same time.

3. To print on the Check Sheet, send the command “FS a 1” which feeds the Check Sheet to the print start position, then send

the print command.

4. To eject the Check Sheet, send the command “FS a 2.”

5. T o have the Check Sheet read results sent again, send the command “FS b.”

5.7.5.1.5 Binding Holes

Do not use a paper with punched holes. It may invalidate your warranty. If you choose to use punched paper, be sure to test it thoroughly. Follow these guidelines: 1 Do not print within 5 mm of the hole center. 2 Make sure that paper dust is not left on the paper. 3 If a hole passes over the paper sensor, a false paper end signal may result. 4 Make sure that the edges of holes are even with the paper surface. If they stick up, the printhead may not move smoothly. 5 The positions of holes should be as illustrated in the figure below.

5.7.5.1.7 Provisions on Fold, Bend and Curl on Cut-sheet Paper

Paper is apt to sustain bends, cambers or curls resulting from manual handling, carrying, stacking, storing conditions, etc. Therefore, before printing, check and adjust paper in accordance with the provisions below to eliminate paper feed problems.

Do not use paper that does not meet the specifications outlined here: it may cause paper feed problems. Problems caused by using non-specified paper are not covered under warranty.

5.7.5.3.4 Fixing Method of Multi-part Paper Joint

The joint fixing method for a multi-part paper shall be spot-pasting, line-pasting or crimping. Spot pasting is the proper precaution against position deviation made when piling sheet tiers.

Crimping may cause position deviation of approx 3 mm. Metal staples must not be used. 1 Spot Pasting

a Spot pasting must be conducted on both right/left sides. Paper which is pasted on only one side is not accepted. b Equal amount paste shall be applied to the fixing points, whose size shall be f3 ~f5 mm.

Press the pasting points to prevent lifting.

Be careful not to generate distinct wrinkles. c See the fig. below for the pasting positions. d Apply spot pasting in zigzag alternately for each sheet.

Do not use a paper with punched holes. It may invalidate your warranty. If you choose to use punched paper, be sure to test it thoroughly. Follow these guidelines:

1 Do not print within 5 mm of the hole center. 2 Make sure that paper dust is not left on the paper. 3 If a hole passes over the paper sensor, a false paper end signal may result. 4 Make sure that the edges of holes are even with the paper surface. If they stick up, the printhead may not move

smoothly.
