INTRODUCTION
The 1000 series is a range of portable, battery powered printers available in three basic models.
1009.0XXX - 42 Cols @ 1.0 lines/second.
1012.0XXX - 24 Cols @ 2.5 lines/second.
1014.0XXX - 40 Cols @ 1.7 lines/second.
The manual has been divided into three sections for ease of reference.
Part 1 deals with printer installation. Part 2 with general operation : paper loading, ribbon changing. Part
3 is for programmers.
By following the guide lines in this manual and with careful handling, a long and reliable operating life
can be expected from these printers.
Please note that the printers are despatched from the factory with no charge in the batteries for safety and
storage reasons. Refer to section 3.5 for power supply details.

PART 1 INSTALLATION
1.1 Precautions
(1) The printer is to be used free-standing and should be placed on a stable surface providing easy
access to the control panel and to the paper well when the lid is open.
(2) Do not site the printer in an excessively hot or humid location. Exposure to grease, dust, metal
swarf or liquids is best avoided.
(3) When using the power adapter avoid using a mains outlet which also supplies heavy switching
machinery since a noisy supply may impair printer operation.
(4) Ensure that the adapter provides the correct operating voltage. Refer to section 3.5 for supply
details.
(5) Care must be taken to ensure that any power adapter supplied by the customer meets with
national safety requirements and has the correct output voltage and polarity. The manufacturer
has no responsibility for equipment operating outside these parameters.
(6) Do not remove paper by pulling it from the back of the mechanism and do not pull excessive
lengths through the top of the mechanism. Either of these operations may cause paper to tear and
jam the mechanism.
1.2 Default Settings
The 1000 printer is supplied with the following default settings:
Data/Parity 8/None
Xon/Xoff On
Parity None (Not shown for Parallel Interface)
Baud Rate 9600 (Not shown for Parallel Interface)
Character Set UK
Print Mode Text
Auto-Off 5 minutes
Emulation Standard
DTR Normal
Interface Serial or Parallel
Mechanism As applicable
Default settings can be restored by pressing both the feed and programme switches together at
power up. Releasing the feed button before the programme button will set original defaults.
See section 1.5 to change the above parameters.
1.3 Self-Test
To perform a self-test press the power “ON” and “FEED” switch simultaneously and keep them
depressed until the test starts. This will check all the mechanics, and a large proportion of the
software and hardware without the need for connection to a host. The software issue is printed
in double height, double width text, followed by the character set in normal text. Below this are
listed the current settings of the user selectable options. If the settings are correct for your host,
Document No : DS8078 Issue : J Page 6
you are ready to connect the printer to your system. Otherwise you will need to reprogramme the
printer as described in section 1.5. The self test will be repeated until the power is switched off.
Normal operation is resumed after power-on.
Note: The parity and baud rate settings are not printed on the parallel version.
1.4 Interface Connections
The 1000 printers are available with a Centronics Parallel or RS232 Serial interface. The
interface type is printed on the self-test slip.
The connector is a 25 way D plug for Parallel and a 25 way D socket for Serial.

Note that on some models, internal links have been factory set in order to allow power input via
the serial D25. In these instances power will either be on:
pins 8, 9: GND OR pins 14,15: GND
pins 12,13: power in pins 16,17: power in
in either case a grommet must be present in the normal power jack input to prevent a short in the
supply and protect against static discharge. Such models are supplied with the grommet fitted
and it should never be removed.

1000 SERIAL INTERFACE TIMING
MARK = -8V
SPACE = +8V
N.B : DTR WILL BE SET FOR A MINIMUM OF 70µs AT THE END OF THE STOP BIT
ON EACH CHARACTER.
THIS CONDITION WILL BE LONGER FOR BUFFER FULL AND WILL BE SET
UNTIL RESET IF A PRINTER FAULT OCCURS.
