1. To start a test print, press the Feed button when the printer is in the self-test wait mode.
2. Check that the following has been printed.

" completed "

This indicates that the printer has been initialized and made the transition to the normal mode.

Resetting the Printer

Certain error conditions can be reset by turning the printer off then back on. Not all error conditions can be reset using this method. For further details, see "Troubleshooting" on page 14.

Troubleshooting

Printout is faint

When printout is faint, adhesive glue or another foreign substance may be present on the thermal head, platen roller, or paper path of the printer.

In such case, first clean the thermal head by following the instructions described in "Cleaning Inside the Printer" on page 11.

If the print quality does not improve, clean the platen roller and paper path of the printer by following the instructions described in "Cleaning Inside the

Printer" on page 11.

Printed character size is not appropriate for 40 mm / 58 mm width paper

When using 40 mm / 58 mm width roll paper, if the printed character size is not appropriate or if the printout does not fit within the paper width, the paper guide may not be installed correctly.

See "Installing the Paper Guide" on page 9 for installation instructions.

! (Error) LED on or flashing

Check to see that the roll paper cover is closed and check the ◇ (Paper) LED. Close the cover or replace the roll paper if necessary. If the printer has been printing a lot, the thermal head may be hot. Wait for the head to cool. Printing will resume automatically. Open the roll paper cover, and check to see if the paper is jammed. If a paper jam occurs or if the roll paper cover will not open, see the section below. Turn the printer off and back on. If the LED is still flashing, notify your manager. The printer may require servicing.

Paper jam

Turn off the power and open the roll paper cover to remove the jammed paper. After that, install the roll paper correctly. If the roll paper cover will not open, see the section below.

If glue or another foreign substance is present on the autocutter blade, platen roller, or the paper path, a paper jam is likely to occur. See "Cleaning Inside the Printer" on page 11 for cleaning instructions.

Note:

Use of the printer for long periods can result in platen roller wear, resulting in linerless label paper readily adhering to the platen roller. If the printer is left for a long period with linerless label paper set in the printer, a paper jam may occur due to the label paper adhering to the roller.

If a paper jam occurs, clean inside the printer. ("Cleaning Inside the Printer" on page 11)

If paper jams occur frequently even after cleaning inside the printer, the platen roller must be replaced. Contact qualified service personnel.

You can also prevent paper jams in advance by re-setting the roll paper. ("Installing or Replacing the Roll Paper" on page 10)

For 68* specifications: This printer is equipped with a function that periodically feeds paper if the printer's power is on for a long period (approx. 12 hours) without printing in order to prevent label paper from adhering to the platen roller. The top margin for the next printed page after this paper feeding will be large, even if back feeding is enabled.

The roll paper cover will not open

Follow the steps below when the roll paper cover will not open.

1. Turn off the printer.
2. Insert a tool such as a screwdriver into the slots on both sides of the printer, and lift the cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it. (See illustration J.)
3. Turn the knob in the direction of the arrow, by using a ballpoint pen or tweezers, until you see a triangle mark in the opening. (See illustration K.)

If paper dust is stuck to the thermal head, blow it off or wipe it away to ensure normal printer operation.

The locations of all parts are shown in the figure.

CAUTION:

If glue adheres to the parts, be sure to wipe it off.

Read the user manual carefully before using the device to avoid damaging the print head. We recommend using the example of the user manual to understand the operation of the device.

WARNING:

The print head can become very hot. Be careful not to touch it; allow it to cool down, then clean it. Do not touch the hot head with your fingers or any hard object.

Thermal print head (self-diagnostic)

Insert the entire roll of paper into the thermal print head and its slot.

Paper roll holder

Performing self-test

In self-test mode, the printer performs a series of internal diagnostics and then prints a list of printer parameters.

If you need technical support, have the self-test results at hand; this can speed up the process of resolving any discrepancies.

To start the self-test, perform the procedure described below.

1. Close the cover of the paper roll holder.
2. Press and hold the Feed button on the control panel to turn on the printer. (Keep the Feed button pressed until the printer starts printing.) The printer prints information about various printer states. 3. After printing information about all printer states, the printer will pause and wait for the following prompt and the Paper indicator will blink. "If you want to continue SELF-TEST printing, please press Feed button." The printer will then enter the self-test waiting mode.
3. To start the test print, press the Feed button while the printer is in self-test waiting mode.
4. Check that the following message is printed: "completed" which indicates that the printer has been initialized and is in normal operation mode.

Open the rear cover of the paper feed roller. If there is no paper jam, or if the rear cover of the paper feed roller does not open, see the troubleshooting section.

Turn off the printer, then turn it on again. If the indicator light still blinks, contact your service representative. The printer may require servicing.

Paper jam

Turn off the printer and open the rear cover of the paper feed roller to remove the jammed paper. Install the paper correctly. If the rear cover of the paper feed roller does not open, see the troubleshooting section.

If the paper jam occurs at the automatic cutter, the paper feed roller, or the paper path, it may be due to a paper jam. See the instructions in the "Cleaning the Internal Parts of the Printer" section on page 103.

Note:

Using the printer for an extended period may cause the paper to stick to the paper feed roller due to the adhesive from labels without backing. If the printer is left for a long time with label paper without backing installed, paper jams may occur due to the paper sticking to the roller. If a paper jam occurs, clean the internal parts of the printer. (See "Cleaning the Internal Parts of the Printer" on page 103.) If paper jams occur frequently even after cleaning the internal parts, the paper feed roller may need to be replaced. Contact your qualified service personnel.

You can also prevent paper jams by using the paper feed roller with the paper roll installed correctly. (See "Installing or Replacing the Paper Roll" on page 102.)

Technical specifications for model 68*: This printer is equipped with a function that automatically feeds paper without a paper roll when the printer is turned on for a long period (approximately 12 hours) to prevent the paper from sticking to the paper feed roller. The top edge of the paper printed on the next page will be larger, even if the paper is fed in the reverse direction.

The rear cover of the paper feed roller does not open.

If the paper jam occurs at the paper feed roller, remove the jammed paper.
