If your customer wants a receipt after you finalized a transaction with the receipt ON/OFF function in the OFF mode, press the RCPTIPO key. This will produce a receipt. If more than 30 items were entered, the receipt will be issued in a summary receipt format.

Power Save Mode

The register will enter into power save mode when no entries are performed based on the pre-programmed time limit (by default, 30 minutes).

When the register goes to the power save mode, all display lights will turn off except the decimal point at the leftmost position of the lower line. The register will return to normal operation mode when any key is pressed or a mode is changed with the mode key. Please note when the register is recovered by a key entry, its key entry is invalid. After the recovery, start the key entry from the beginning.

2 Error Warning

In the following examples, your register will go into an error state accompanied with a warning beep and a corresponding error message. Clear the error state by pressing the CL key and take proper action.

Please refer to the error message table on page 69.

• Enter over a 32-digit number (entry limit overflow): Cancel the entry and re-enter the correct number.

The transaction is voided (treated as a subtotal void) and the receipt is issued by this function. If you have already entered a tendered amount, the operation is finalized as a cash sale.

3 Item Entries

■ Single item entries

Department entries

For merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 99 departments. To the departments, group attributes such as taxable status are applied to items when they are entered.

- When using the department keys (for department 1 to 40)

For department 1 to 20, enter a unit price and press a department key. If you use a programmed unit price, press a department key only.

For department 21 to 40, enter a unit price, press the DEPTSHIFT key and press a department key. If you use a programmed unit price, press the DEPTSHIFT key and press a department key.

When using a programmed unit price

*1 Less than the programmed upper limit amounts. When zero is entered, only the sales quantity is added. *2 For the departments 21 through 40, press the department shift key.

Note

Please note if you press the same key after using the DEPTSHIFT key, it acts as a repeat entry. For example, when you register an item of dept. 21 using the DEPTSHIFT key and then an item of dept. 1 using the preset unit price, you should use the department code entry key described below for the dept. 1 item. If you just press the 1²¹ key to register dept. 1 item, it will act as a repeat entry of dept. 21 item.

- When using the department code entry key

Enter a department (dept.) code and press the DEPT# key, then enter a unit price and press the DEPT# key again. If the dept. code is programmed to preset price entry style and a unit price is preset, the cash register will finish its registration operation.

*1 Less than the programmed upper limit amounts

When zero is entered, only the sales quantity is added.

PLU/subdepartment entries

For another merchandise classification, the cash register provides a maximum of 1800 PLUs/subdepartments. PLUs are used to call up preset prices by a code entry. Subdepartments are used to classify merchandise into smaller groups under the departments. Every PLU and subdepartment has a code from 1 to 1800, and should belong to a department to obtain attributes of that department.

The cash register is pre-programmed to PLU mode and zero for unit price. To use PLU entries, their preset unit prices should be previously programmed. (Refer to page 34.)

To use subdepartment entries, change to subdepartment mode for the PLU codes.

- PLU entries

- Subdepartment (open PLU) entries

* Less than the programmed upper limit amounts

When zero is entered, only the sales quantity is added.

Example: Selling a dept. 12 item (\12.00), a dept. 21 item (\5.00), a dept. 14 item (using preset price), a dept. 22 item (using preset price), and a dept. 50 item (\15.00), a dept. 41 item (using preset price), a PLU 2 item (PLU entry) and a PLU 12 item (subdept. entry, \12.00)

Receipt printKey operation example

■ Repeat entries

You can use this function for entering a sale of two or more of the same items. Consecutive pressing of a department key, DEPT# key or PLU/SUB key is as shown on key operation example below.

■ Multiplication entries

When selling a large quantity of items, it is convenient to use the multiplication entry method. Enter quantity using numeric keys and press the Ⓗ/FOR key before starting item entry as shown in the example on the following page.

Note

When programmed to allow fractional quantity entries, you can enter up to four integers and three digit decimal, though the quantity is counted as one for sales reports. To enter a fractional quantity, use the decimal point key between integer and decimal, as ⑦•⑤ for entering 7.5.

Receipt printKey operation example

■ Split pricing entries

This function is practical when the customer wants to purchase items normally sold in bulk.

To realize this function, you must change the programmed setting. Refer to "Various Function Selection Programming 1" (job code 70) for programming details.

To make split pricing entries, follow the procedure below:

Receipt printKey operation example

■ Single item cash sale (SICS) entry

• This function is useful when a sale is for only one item and is for cash. This function is applicable only to those departments that have been set for SICS or to their associated PLUs or subdepartments.
• The transaction is complete and the drawer opens as soon as you press the department key, DEPT# key or PLU/SUB key.

If an entry to a department or PLU/subdepartment set for SICS follows the ones to departments or PLUs/subdepartments not set for SICS, it does not finalize and results in a normal sale.

4 Displaying Subtotals

The register provides three types of subtotals:

Merchandise subtotal

Press the MDSE\$BTL key at any point during a transaction. The net sale subtotal - not including tax - will appear in the display with the function message "MDSE ST".

Taxable subtotal

Taxable 1 subtotal

Press the TAX1 SHIFT and #/TM/SBTL keys in this order at any point during a transaction. The sale subtotal of taxable 1 items will appear in the display with the function message "TAX1 ST".

Taxable 2 subtotal

Press the TAX2 SHIFT and #/TM/SBTL keys in this order at any point during a transaction. The sale subtotal of taxable 2 items will appear in the display with the function message "TAX2 ST".

Including-tax subtotal (complete subtotal)

Press the #/TM/SBTL key at any point during a transaction. The sale subtotal including tax will appear in the display with the function message "SUBTOTAL".

5 Finalization of Transaction

■ Cash or check tendering

Press the #/TM/SBTL key to get a complete tax subtotal, enter the amount tendered by your customer, then press the CA/AT/NS key if it is a cash tender or press the CHK key if it is a check tender. When the amount tendered is greater than the amount of the sale, the register will show the change due amount with the function message "CHANGE". Otherwise the register will show a deficit with the function message "DUE". You now must make a correct tender entry.

Cash tendering

Check tendering

Receipt print Key operation example

■ Cash or check sale that does not require entry

Enter items and press the CA/AT/NS key if it is a cash sale or press the CHK if it is a check sale. The register will display the total sale amount.

■ Charge (credit) sale

Enter items and press a charge key (CH1 or CH2).

Mixed-tender sale

You can perform mixed-tendering of check and cash, cash and charge, and check and charge.

Example: The customer pays 9.50 in cash and40.00 by charge for an including-tax subtotal of $49.50.

Tax Calculation

Automatic tax

When the register is programmed with a tax rate (or tax table) and the tax status of an individual department is set for taxable, it computes the automatic tax on any item that is entered directly into the department or indirectly via a related PLU.

Example: Selling five 6.70 items (dept. 1, taxable 1) and one7.15 item (PLU 85, taxable 2) for cash

Receipt print / Key operation example

Manual tax

The machine allows you to enter tax manually after it finalizes an item entry.

Example: Selling an $8.00 item (dept. 12) for cash with 50 cents as tax

Receipt print / Key operation example

Tax delete

You can delete the automatic tax on the taxable 1 and taxable 2 subtotal of each transaction by pressing the TAX key after the subtotal is displayed.

To delete taxable 1 subtotal, press TAX1SHIFT, #/TM/SBTL to get taxable 1 subtotal, and then press TAX to delete the subtotal.

To delete taxable 2 subtotal, press TAX2SHIFT, #:TM/SBTL to get taxable 2 subtotal, and then press TAX to delete the subtotal.

To delete all taxable (1-4) subtotals, press TAX1SHIFT, TAX2SHIFT and #TM/SBTL ("TAX ST 0.00" is displayed) and press TAX to delete all the taxable subtotals.

Example: Selling a \7.25 item (dept. 1, taxable 1) and another \5.15 item (dept. 11, taxable 2) for cash and entering the sale as non-taxable

Receipt printKey operation example

■ Tax status shift

The machine allows you to shift the programmed tax status of each department or the PLU key by pressing the TAX1SHIFT and/or TAX2SHIFT keys before those keys. After each entry is completed, the programmed tax status of each key is resumed.

Example: Selling the following items for cash with their programmed tax status reversed

• One \$13.45 item of dept. 16 (non-taxable) as a taxable 1 item
• One \$7.00 item of PLU 25 (non-taxable) as a taxable 1 and 2 item
• One \$4.00 item of dept. 11 (taxable 2) as a non-taxable item
• Two \$10.50 items of dept. 1 (taxable 1) as taxable 2 items

Receipt printKey operation example

2 Correction of the Next-to-last or Earlier Entry (indirect void)

You can void any incorrect department entry, PLU/subdepartment entry or item refund entry made during a transaction if you find it before finalizing the transaction (e.g. pressing the CA/AT/NS key). This function is applicable to department, PLU/subdepartment and refund entries only.

Press the VOID key just before you press a department key, DEPT# key (before the first depression of the DEPT# key in case open and preset entries are allowed) or PLU/SUB key. For the refund indirect void, press the VOID key after you press the RFND key.

Receipt printKey operation example

3 Subtotal Void

You can void an entire transaction. Once subtotal void is executed, the transaction is aborted and the register issues a receipt. This function does not work when more than 30 items have been entered.

Receipt printKey operation example

4 Correction of Incorrect Entries not Handled by the Direct or Indirect Void Function

Any errors found after the entry of a transaction has been completed or during an amount tendered entry cannot be voided. These errors must be corrected by the manager.

The following steps should be taken:

1. If making the amount tendered entry, finalize the transaction.
2. Make correct entries from the beginning.
3. Hand the incorrect receipt to the manager for its cancellation.

PRIOR TO PROGRAMMING

Before starting sales entries, you must first program necessary items so the cash register suits your sales needs. In this manual, there are three sections, BASIC FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where required items must be programmed, AUXILIARY FUNCTION PROGRAMMING where you can program for more convenient use of keys on the keyboard, and ADVANCED PROGRAMMING where various optional programming features are provided. Find the appropriate features for your needs, and make the necessary programming.

Note

You can select the language of text (English, French or Spanish) printed on receipts and journals. For the language selection, please refer to "Language Selection" described later in this section.

■ Procedure for programming

1. Check to see whether both journal and receipt rolls are present in the machine. If there is not enough paper on a roll, replace it with a new one (refer to MAINTENANCE section for the replacement).
2. Put the manager key in the mode switch and turn it to the PGM position.
3. Program necessary items into the cash register. Every time you program an item, the cash register will print the setting. Please refer to print samples in each section.
4. If necessary, issue programming reports for your reference.

Note

On the key operation example shown in the programming details, numbers such as "08262002" indicate the parameter which must be entered using the corresponding numeric keys.

Note

You can use the date format of day-month-year (DD/MM/YYYY) or year-month-day (YYYY/MM/DD) format. To change the format, refer to "Various Function Selection Programming 1" section (Job code 61).

■ Time

For setting the time, enter the time in 4 digits using the 24-hour format. For example, when the time is set to 2:30 AM, enter 230; and when it is set to 2:30 PM, enter 1430.

Procedure

For display and print, 12-hour format is applied by default. To change it to 24-hour format, refer to "Various Function Selection Programming 1" section (Job code 61).

2 Tax Programming for Automatic Tax Calculation Function

The cash register can support US and Canadian tax systems. If you use the Canadian tax system, you must first change the tax system, then program the tax rate or tax table and quantity for doughnut exempt which are described in this section. For changing the cash register's tax system, please refer to "Various Function Selection Programming 1" section (job code 70).

Before you can proceed with registration of sales, you must first program the tax that is levied in accordance with the law of your state. The cash register comes with the ability to program four different tax rates. In most states, you will only need to program Tax 1. However if you live in an area that has a separate local tax (such as a Parish tax) or a hospitality tax, the register can be programmed to calculate these separate taxes.

When you program the tax status for a department, tax will automatically be added to sales of items assigned to the department according to the programmed tax status for the department. You can also enter tax manually.

There are two tax programming methods. The tax rate method uses a straight percentage rate per dollar. The tax table method requires tax break information from your state or local tax offices. Use the method which is acceptable in your state. You can obtain necessary data for tax programming from your local tax office.

■ Tax programming using a tax rate

The percent rate specified here is used for tax calculation on taxable subtotals.

Procedure

To delete a tax rate, use the following sequence:

Example: Programming the tax rate 4% as tax rate 2 with tax exempt as 12¢

PrintKey operation example

Note

• If you make an incorrect entry before pressing the third ⒽIFOR key in programming a tax rate, cancel it with the ⒽCL key.
• You do not need to enter the trailing zeros of a tax rate (after the decimal point), but you do need to enter the decimal for fractions.

■ The tax table (applicable to the add-on tax)

If you are in an area that uses a tax table for tax calculation, you can program the cash register accordingly. Tax table programming can be performed for Tax 1 through Tax 4.

Sample tax table

New Jersey tax table: 6%

To program a tax table, first make a table like the right table shown above.

	Range of sales amount
Taxes	Minimum breakpoint	Maximum breakpoint
.00	.01	to	.10
.01 ← T	.11 ← Q	to	.22
.02	.23	to	.38
.03	.39	to	.56
.04	.57	to	.72
.05	.73	to	.88
.06	.89	to	1.10
.07	1.11 ← M1	to	1.22
.08	1.23	to	1.38
.09	1.39	to	1.56
.10	1.57	to	1.72
.11	1.73	to	1.88
.12	1.89	to	2.10
.13	2.11 ← M2	to	2.22

A: Difference between the minimum breakpoint and the next one (¢)
-10 (0.11 - 0.01)	B: Non-cyclic↑C: Cyclic-1↑D: Cyclic-2↑
12 (0.23 - 0.11)
16 (0.39 - 0.23)
18 (0.57 - 0.39)
16 (0.73 - 0.57)
16 (0.89 - 0.73)
22 (1.11 - 0.89)
12 (1.23 - 1.11)
16 (1.39 - 1.23)
18 (1.57 - 1.39)
16 (1.73 - 1.57)
16 (1.89 - 1.73)
22 (2.11 - 1.89)

From the tax table, calculate the differences between a minimum break point and the next one (A). Then, from the differences, find irregular cycles (B) and regular cycles (C and D). These cycles will show you the following items necessary to program the tax table:

T: The tax amount collected on the minimum taxable amount (Q)

Q: The minimum taxable amount

M1: The maximum value of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle (C) We call this point "MAX point."

M2: The maximum value of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle (D) We call this point "MAX point."

M: Range of the minimum breakpoint on a regular cycle: difference between Q and M1 or between M1 and M2

To delete a tax table, use the following sequence:

*1 First figure: (1 or 0)

The first figure to be entered depends upon whether the difference between a minimum breakpoint to be entered and the preceding minimum breakpoint is not less than 1.00 or more than 99¢. When the difference is not less than1.00, enter "1," and when it is not more than 99¢, enter "0" or nothing.

Second figure: The second figure depends upon whether your tax table is to be programmed as tax table 1, (1 to 4) 2, 3 or 4.

*2 If the rate is fractional (e.g. 4-3/8%), then the fractional portion (3/8) would be converted to its decimal equivalent (i.e. .375) and the resulting rate of 4.375 would be entered. Note that the nominal rate (R) is generally indicated on the tax table.

Note

If you make an incorrect entry before entering the M in programming a tax table, cancel it with the CL key; and if you make an error after entering the M, cancel it with the #/TM/SBTL key. Then program again from the beginning.

- Limitations to the entry of minimum breakpoints

The register can support a tax table consisting of no more than 72 breakpoints. (The maximum number of breakpoints is 36 when the breakpoint difference is $1.00 or more.) If the number of breakpoints exceeds the register's table capacity, then the manual entry approach should be used.

Example: Programming the sample tax table shown on the previous page as tax table 1

Note

You do not need to enter the trailing zeros of a tax rate (after the decimal point) but you do need to enter the decimal point for fractions.

- If the tax is not provided for every cent, modify the tax table by setting the tax for every cent in the following manner.

When setting the tax, consider the minimum breakpoint corresponding to unprovided tax to be the same as the one corresponding to the tax provided on a large amount.

From the modified tax table above;

Rate = 8(%), T = 0.01 = 1¢, Q =0.11 = 11¢, M1 = 1.11, M2 = 2.11, M = 100

AUXILIARY FUNCTION PROGRAMMING

1 Department Programming

Merchandise can be classified into a maximum of 99 departments. Items sold using the department keys can later be printed on a report shown as the quantities sold and sales amounts classified by department. The data is useful for making purchasing decisions and other store operations. Departments can be assigned to articles whose prices were set using PLU/subdepartment function.

When using a department key, you must set the parameters to specify the department status, such as positive or negative department. Prices can be assigned directly to department keys for frequently purchased items, which enables you to enter the prices by simply pressing the department keys.

■ Department status

Procedure

*1: To program departments 21 through 40, press the department shift key.

To program another department, start from the beginning without pressing the CA/AT/NS key.

*2: Item: Selection: Entry:

A Type Bottle return 1
		Normal 0
B Group number 0-9 (0:Non group)
C Commission group number 0-2 (0:Non commission)
D Tax 4 status Taxable 1
		Non-taxable 0
E Tax 3 status Taxable 1
		Non-taxable 0
F Tax 2 status Taxable 1
		Non-taxable 0
G Tax 1 status Taxable 1
		Non-taxable 0
H SICS / Normal	SICS	1
		Normal 0
I Sign	Negative department	1
	Positive department	0
J Entry digit limit		0-7
K Type of unit price entry	Open and preset	3
	Preset only	2
	Open only	1
	Inhibit department key	0

Type

- Select whether you use a department as normal department or for bottle return.

Group number

- If group setting (0 to 9, 0: non group) is done, items sold using the department keys and the associated PLUs and subdepartments can be classified into groups for reporting the sales.

Commission group number

- A commission group (0 to 2, 0: non commission) can be assigned to each department for commission for clerks. Each commission amount for each clerk is calculated based on a programmed commission rate and later printed on clerk reports.

Tax status (taxable 1 through 4 / non-taxable)

- When any entry of a taxable department is made in a transaction, tax is automatically computed according to the associated tax table or rate.

SICS (Single Item Cash Sale)

- If an entry of a department programmed for SICS is made first, the sale will be finalized as a cash sale as soon as the department key is pressed. If the entry is made after entering a department not programmed for SICS, the sale will not be finalized until the CA/AT/NS key is pressed.

Entry digit limit

- Set the number of allowable digits for the maximum entry amount for each department. The limit is effective for operations in the REG mode and can be overridden in the MGR mode.

Example: Programming department 2 as normal dept. group 1, commission group 1, taxable 1, SICS, negative department, entry digit limit - 7 digits, and allowing open & preset entry.

(ABCDEFGHIJK: 01100011173)

■ Preset unit price

*To program departments 21 through 40, press the department shift key.

To program another department, start from the beginning without pressing the CAVAT/INS key.

Note

If a department is not programmed to allow the entry of preset unit prices in functional programming, the department is automatically changed to allow the entry of preset unit prices by this programming entry.

2 PLU (Price Look-Up) and Subdepartment Programming

The PLU function allows speedy key entries whereby a price is automatically called up when a code is entered. The subdepartment is a kind of "open PLU", which requires you to enter a price after the PLU code is entered. A maximum of 1800 PLU/subdepartment settings are possible. Each one belongs to a department and acquires the department's parameters (dept. type (normal or bottle return), dept. group, tax status, SICS and sign).

A commission group (0 to 2, 0: No commission is applied) can be assigned to each department for commission for clerks. Each commission amount for individual clerk is calculated based on the corresponding programmed commission rate and printed later on clerk reports.

The cash register is preprogrammed so all 1800 codes are assigned as PLUs (commission group: 0) associated with department 1 and preset unit price "0".

■ Unit price and associated department assignment

*1: To assign departments 21 through 40, press the department shift key. When the associated department is department 41-99:

*2: For a subdepartment, set the limit amount of unit price entry. To program the following PLU, start from entering a unit price or an associated department code without pressing the [CA/AT/NS] key. To program another PLU, start from the beginning without pressing the CA/AT/NS key.

To delete a PLU code, use the following sequence:

■ Function selection

*: Item: Selection: Entry:

A Commission group number 0-2 (0: Non commission)

B PLU/subdepartment selection Subdepartment 0

PLU 1

When you program the last PLU code, the programming sequence will be complete with a press of the #/TM/SBTL key.

3 Commission Rate Programming

Based on each clerk's sales total of each commission group and the corresponding commission rate, the commission amounts are calculated, which is printed on clerk reports.

■ Commission rate

You must use a decimal point when setting a fractional rate.

4 Miscellaneous Key Programming

The cash register provides miscellaneous keys such as %1, %2, ⊙, RFND, RA, RCPT:PO, CONV, TAX, CHK, CH1, CH2 and CAVAT/NS. While the cash register is pre-programmed so you can use these keys, you must set a currency conversion rate to use CONV key. You can also program these keys for more convenient use. Please refer to the data below for programming these keys. Factory setting is indicated with parentheses.

Percent rate (0.00%), tax status (non-taxable), sign (minus), item % and subtotal % entry* (both are allowed), percent rate limitation (100%)

Amount (0.00), tax status (non-taxable), sign (minus), item ⊖ and subtotal ⊖ entry* (both are allowed), entry digit limit (7 digits)

H Entry digit limit for discount key	0-7

When programming for percent keys, always enter 0 for H.

Tax status (taxable 1 through 4 / non-taxable)

- When taxable is selected, tax is applied to the amount obtained after premium or discount calculation.

+/- sign

- Programming of the +/- sign assigns the premium or discount function for each key.

Entry digit limit (For discount key only)

- The entry digit limit is in effect for the REG-mode operations but can be overridden in the MGR mode. The entry digit limit is represented by the number of allowable digit for the maximum entry amount for discount key. If "0" is set, open price entry is prohibited.

Example: Programming the discount key as taxable 1, discount (minus sign), allowing both of item and subtotal (-), and entry digit limit - 6 digits. (ABCDEFGH: 00011006)

■ Function parameters for CONV

*: Item: Selection: Entry:

A Open rate entry Allow 0

C Entry digit limit 0-8

Footer printing

- This programming decides whether or not the machine should print a message at the foot of a receipt when a specified media key is used. With regard to programming method of footer logo message, refer to "Logo messages" section on page 44.

Amount tendered compulsory

• You may select amount tendered, compulsory or optional, for the CA/AT/NS and CHK keys.
• You may select amount tendered, compulsory or inhibited, for the CH1 and CH2 key.

Entry digit limit

- For the CH1, CH2 and CHK keys, program upper limit entry amount for the tendered amount. For the CA/AT/NS key, program upper limit entry for total cash amount which can be handled on the register. The entry digit limit is in effect for REG-mode operation but can be overridden in the MGR mode. The entry digit limit is represented by the number of allowable digits for the maximum entry or total amount. When "0" is set, the operation of the corresponding key is prohibited.

5 Text Programming

The register allows you to program text for clerk names, department item names, PLU/subdepartment item names, if necessary. There are two ways for programming text: using character keys on the keyboard or entering character codes with numeric keys on the keyboard.

Using character keys on the keyboard

You can enter characters according to the small figures printed in the lower right position of the tops. For the layout, please refer to "Keyboard" section on page 5.

The following are used as control keys for character entry:

Toggles between upper-case and lower-case letters. By default, the upper-case letter is selected. Once the SHIFT key is pressed, you are locked in for entering lower-case letters. "a" is displayed when lower-case letters entry is selected as shown in the operator display example on the following page. Press the NUMBER key to enter numeric characters. For example to enter "1", press the NUMBER and ① key. If you press the ① key without pressing the NUMBER key, the cash register goes to character codes entry mode.

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING

1 Register Number and Consecutive Number Programming

Register number and consecutive number are printed on every receipt and journal.

When your store has two or more registers, it is practical to set separate register numbers for identification. The consecutive number is increased by one each time a receipt and/or journal is issued.

For consecutive number programming, enter a number (max. 4 digits) that is one less than the desired starting number.

1 In Case of Power Failure

When power is lost, the machine retains its memory contents and all information on sales entries.

• When power failure is encountered in register idle state or during an entry, the machine returns to normal operation after power recovery.
• When power failure is encountered during a printing cycle, the register prints “==========” and then carries out the correct printing procedure after power recovery. (See the sample print.)

2 In Case of Printer Error

If the printer runs out of paper, the printer will stall, and "PAPER EMPTY" will appear on the display. Key entries will not be accepted. Refer to section 4 in this chapter, install a new roll, then press the CL key. The printer will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

If the print head comes up, the printer stalls, "HEAD UP" will appear on the display. Key entries will not be accepted. Bring the print head back to the correct position, then press the Ⓖ key. The printer will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

3 Cautions in Handling the Printer and Recording Paper

■ Cautions in handling the printer

• If you are not going to use the register for an extended period of time, pull the print head release lever toward you so that the print head is set apart from the plate. (head-up position)
• Avoid dusty and humid environments, direct sunlight and iron powder (a permanent magnet and electromagnet are used in this machine.)
• Use the print head release lever only when necessary.
• Never pull the paper when it is in contact with the print head. First release the head with the print head release lever, and then remove the paper.
• Never touch the surface of the print head.
• Never touch around the print head and the motor during printing or before they have had sufficient time to cool.

■ Cautions in handling the recording paper (thermal paper)

• Use only paper specified by SHARP.
• Do not unpack the thermal paper until you are ready to use it.
• Avoid heat. The paper will color at around 70°C .
• Avoid dusty and humid storage places. Avoid direct sunlight.

- The printed text on the paper can discolor under conditions of high humidity and temperature, exposure to the direct sunlight, contact with glue, thinner or a freshly copied blueprint, and heat caused by friction from scratching or other means.

- Be very careful when handling the thermal paper. If you want to keep a permanent record, copy the printed text with a photocopier.

4 Replacing the Paper Roll

Be sure to use paper rolls specified by SHARP.

The use of any other paper rolls other than those specified could cause paper jamming, resulting in register malfunction.

Paper specification

Paper width: 1.75 ± 0.02 in (44.5 ± 0.5 mm)

Max. outside diameter: 3.15 in (80 mm)

Quality: Thermal paper

- Be sure to set paper roll(s) prior to using your machine, otherwise it may cause a malfunction.

Install the paper roll in the printer. Be careful to set the roll and cut the paper end correctly.

If the top end of the paper roll is fixed with paste or tape, the paper may lose its color development ability in the pasted or taped area due to the deterioration of the heat-sensitive color development component of the paper surface. This may result in nothing appearing at this location when printing. Therefore, when setting a new paper roll in the machine, be sure to cut off approximately one revolution (approx. 25 cm long).

(How to set the paper roll) (How to cut the paper end)
