Paper Installation

PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLING PAPER

zDo not touch the thermal print head and the detector directly when handling the

printer or replacing paper. Touching the print head may cause damage to the print

head and/or cause faulty printing.

zInstall the paper with the platen unit released. The printer will not auto load.

zBe sure paper is aligned straight in printer. Leave minimum 2 cm of the paper past

the cut-bar.

zWhen setting the platen unit, the reduction gear may interfere with the platen gear

and may cause the platen unit not to engage properly. In such a case, release the

platen unit and set it again.

zIf the paper is skewed, feed the paper until the paper straightens or open the printer

and re-install the paper roll.

zRemove jammed paper with the platen unit released. Do not pull the paper by force

– severe damage may occur.

A. Open the transparent cover.

B. Use the paper included in the package. Insert the paper spindle into the paper roll

and feed it in the groove. Refer to (Fig. 4).

becomes straight or install the paper again.

PRECAUTIONS FOR THERMAL PRINT HEAD

PRECAUTIONS FOR MAINTAINING PRINT QUALITY

AND LIFE OF THE THERMAL PRINT HEAD

zUsing anything other than the specified paper may reduce print quality and life of the

thermal print head. The followings are examples of incorrect paper:

- Poor printing quality due to low thermal sensitivity

- Abrasion of the thermal print head due to paper surface roughness

- Paper jams and unusual noise due to the thermal layer of the thermal paper sticking

to the thermal print head

- Printing fade due to low preservability of the thermal paper

- Electrolytic corrosion of the thermal print head due to inferior paper

zDo not open the paper packaging until ready to use.

zDo not use a paper roll with glued end or folded end. In case of using such roll papers,

replace with a new one before the end of the paper roll to prevent damage to thermal

print head.

zDo not print without paper; otherwise, the thermal print head may be damage.

zDo not hit or scratch the surface of the thermal print head with any sharp or hard

object. This could damage the thermal print head.

zDo not release the platen unit during printing; otherwise this may reduce the efficiency

of the printer and may cause damage.

zIf the platen is exposed to dirt, use a cotton swab soaked in alcohol to clean the platen.

CLEANING THE THERMAL PRINT HEAD

PRECAUTIONS FOR CLEANING THE THERMAL PRINT HEAD

zDo not clean the thermal print head immediately after printing. Allow the thermal print

head to cool before cleaning.

zClean the thermal head with printer cover open.

zDo not use sandpaper, box cutter or knife etc. for cleaning. These items will damage

the heat element.

zIf the surface of the thermal print head is exposed to dirt, clean the thermal print head

to avoid poor print quality and damage to print head.

Procedures for Cleaning the Thermal Print Head

zTurn off the power before cleaning.

zOpen the printer cover.

zClean the thermal print head heat element and printer detector using a cotton swab

soaked in ethyl or isopropyl alcohol.

zClose the cover after the alcohol has dried completely.

OPERATION

1. Connect power adaptor to printer, and turn printer on using the [ON/OFF] button located

at the rear of printer. The Power Indicator will light green.

2. In print mode of the scale, the report will be printed.

3. Press [ON/OFF] button to turn off printer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Why is the printing quality deteriorated?

zIf the printer has not been used for a prolonged period of time, the platen could be

deformed and may cause print quality to deteriorate. In this case, feed paper for a

while to recover deformation of the platen.

2. Why can’t I feed in the paper?

zThe platen and the thermal head may be stuck together and cause paper feed

difficulty. You may need to release the platen unit and set it back again.

3. Paper Jam

zDo not pull the paper and change angle of the paper coming out while printing.

zIf the printer main body and the platen unit are not placed in proper position, the

paper jam may occur. If the platen is exposed to dirt, the paper jam may occur.

zRemove jammed paper with the platen unit released. Do not pull the paper by force

– severe damage may occur.

4. Why can’t I print the results in the paper?

zCheck whether the paper is installed properly. Only the thermal side (shiny side)

can be printed. Be sure the thermal side of the paper faces down when installing

the paper into the printer. Refer to (Fig.5).

5. Printing stuck or stopped

zCheck whether the thermal print head or platen is dirty and clean it. Refer to

Cleaning the Thermal Print Head.
