Chapter 1. Setting Up the Printer

1-1. Unpacking

Your printer box should include these items. If any items are damaged or missing, please contact your dealer for assistance.

1-2. Connecting the Cables

You can connect up the three cables to the printer. They all connect to the connector panel on the back of the printer, which is shown below:

Notes : Before connecting any of the cables, make sure that both the printer and the host are turned off.

1-3. Connecting the computer

You need an appropriate interface cable.

1. Plug the cable connector securely into the printer’s interface connector.

2. Tighten the screws on both sides of the cable connector.

3. Attach the other end of the cable to the computer.

1-4. Connecting the Drawer

WARNING:

Use a drawer that matches the printer specification. Using an improper drawer may damage the drawer as well as the printer.

CAUTION:

Do not connect a telephone line to the drawer kick-out connector; otherwise the

printer and the telephone line may be damaged.

Plug the drawer cable into the drawer kick-out connector on the back of the printer

next to the power supply connector.

1-5. Connecting the Power Supply

CAUTIONS:

When connecting or disconnecting the power supply from the printer, make sure that the power supply is not plugged into an electrical outlet. Otherwise you may damage the power supply or the printer.

If the power supply’s rated voltage and your outlet’s voltage do not match, contact your dealer for assistance. Do not plug in the power cord. Otherwise, you may damage the power supply or the printer.

1. Make sure that the printer’s power switch is turned off, and the power supply’s power cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

2. Check the label on the power supply to make sure that the voltage required by the power supply matches that of your electrical outlet.

3. Plug in the power supply’s cable as shown below. Notice that the flat side of the plug faces down.

Notes : To remove the DC cable connector, make sure that the power supply’s power cord is unplugged; then grasp the connector at the arrow and pull it straight out.

1-6. Installing or Replacing the Paper Roll

Notes : Be sure to use paper rolls that meet the specifications. Do not use paper rolls that have the paper glued to the core because the printer cannot detect the paper end correctly.

1. Make sure that the printer is not receiving data; otherwise, data may be lost.

2. Open the paper roll cover by pressing the cover-open button.

Notes : Do not open the print cover while the printer is operating. This may damage the printer.

3. Remove the used paper roll core if there is one.

4. Insert the paper roll as shown.

5. Be sure to note the correct direction that the paper comes off the roll.

6. Pull out a small amount of paper, as shown. Then close the cover.

Notes : When closing the cover, press the center of printer cover firmly to prevent Paper miss-loading.

7. Tear off the paper as shown.

1-7. Adjustments and Settings

The SRP-350 is set up at the factory to be appropriate for almost all users. It does, however, offer some settings for users with special requirements.

It has DIP switches that allow you to change communication settings, such as handshaking and parity check, as well as print density.

The SRP-350 also has a near-end sensor for the paper. This can give you a warning when the paper is almost out. If you find that there is not enough paper remaining on the roll when the near-end detector is triggered, you can change the near-end sensor setting. Rotate the near end sensor tab at front or rear position.(See the below figure)
