Installing the Paper Roll

Note:

Do not use paper rolls that have the paper glued or taped to the core because they might cause a paper jam.

You need to install a paper roll even if you are using only the slip or validation sections of the printer.

Turn on the printer. Hold both edges of the paper and insert it into the paper slot. It will be fed automatically into the printer.

For 2-ply paper, insert the journal paper into the take-up spool as shown below. Be sure that 40mm to 60~mm (1.5" to 2.25") of paper extends beyond the spool and that the edge of the paper is against the flange.

Insert the take-up spool and tear off the receipt paper, as shown below.

If you need to remove roll paper before it is all gone, follow these steps:

1. Lift up the take-up spool with the journal paper attached.
2. Cut the paper off behind the paper insert slot.
3. Push the release lever (located on the right side of the paper roll).

English

Then pull out the remaining paper in the paper feed direction. Always pull paper in the paper feed direction to prevent damage to the printer mechanism.

Installing the Ribbon

EPSON recommends the use of genuine EPSON ribbon cassettes.

Turn on the printer. Turn the knob on the ribbon cartridge. Open the front cover of the printer, and insert the new ribbon. Turn the knob two or three times and check the ribbon position.

Troubleshooting

Error light on or blinking.

Make sure that the printer cover is properly closed.

Turn off the printer and check for a paper jam. After removing the paper jam, turn on the printer.

Opening the printer mechanism

For difficult paper jams or to remove objects that have fallen in the printer, follow the steps below:

1. Turn off the printer and open the paper roll cover. Raise the mechanism by pushing the levers backward in the direction indicated by the arrows.

1. Press the paper release lever and pull the jammed paper out in the paper feed direction or remove the object that was dropped in the printer. Always pull paper in the paper feed direction to prevent damage to the printer mechanism. Then push the mechanism back into place until you feel it click.

Turn on the printer. If you cannot solve the problem, contact your dealer or a qualified service person.

MICR Option (factory option)

Reading MICR Characters On Personal Checks

CAUTION:

Do not insert checks with staples in them. This may cause paper jams,

MICR reading errors, and damage to the MICR head.

Be sure the checks are flat, without curls, folds, or wrinkles.

1. Wait until the SLIP light blinks. Then insert the check face up with the right side of the check against the right side of the paper inlet as far as it will go. Be sure that the MICR characters are on the right.

1. The printer will detect the check and start drawing it in. When the printer starts drawing it in, let go of the check immediately. When the printer ejects the check and the SLIP light starts blinking again; remove the check by pulling it straight up; do not pull it at an angle.

Cleaning the MICR Mechanism

Once a year clean the MICR head with a moistened cleaning sheet.

Use the following or an equivalent commercially available cleaning sheet:

PRESAT brand (KIC) "CHECK READER CLEANING CARD."

Note:

Be sure not to use an adhesive cleaning sheet.

Follow the steps below:

1. Load a paper roll in the printer; turn off the power; then open the paper roll cover and turn the power back on while holding down the RELEASE button.
2. Press the RELEASE button seven times; then close the paper roll cover. The printer prints the following message on receipt paper and the SLIP light flashes.

RECOGNITION MODE **** Please set check.

1. Insert the cleaning sheet like a standard check.

CAUTION:

Be sure that the sheet is inserted with the correct side up and that it is inserted in the correct direction.

Use a cleaning sheet only one time; then discard it.

1. When the sheet is ejected, press the RELEASE button, and remove the sheet from the printer.

Notes on Using the MICR Reader

Do not install the printer near any magnetic fields. Be especially careful where you install your display device and be sure to check the recognition rate of the MICR reader with the display device in place.

Make sure that the printer is not subjected to any impact or vibration when it is performing a MICR reading.
