Receipt Printer Maintenance
Loading a new paper roll into the printer requires the following steps:
1.
The new paper roll is loaded as per the Paper Path diagram. To do this, prepare the new
roll by first removing approximately 100mm of paper (as this may be dirty or marked)
and then cutting the leading edge of the paper cleanly at right angles.
2.
Slide the new paper roll onto the support shaft with the paper directed towards the
printer body.
Note: Make sure the centre cardboard tube is not pushed out of
the roll.
3.
Insert the prepared leading edge of the paper into the rear of the pinch
roller. The printer should automatically capture the paper and feed a
short length out of the exit slide.
4.
To obtain a “test print”, press the Form Feed (FF) button on the side
of the printer. The test print can be removed by pulling the paper
straight out with a little downward pressure.
The printer’s internal cutting edge should leave a clean, slightly
serrated edge across the width of the paper.
Note: should the paper advance without any test print, check
the orientation of the paper, as it may be upside-down.
For clearing a paper jam either internally or in the exit slide, follow
these steps:
1.
Open the TT8900 OPT door using the commissioned key.
2.
Gently open the spring-loaded paper guide to check and
remove any paper jam in this area.
3.
Jammed paper is removed from the feed roller by gently
pulling backwards.
4.
When the area is clear, reload the paper roll as described in
the previous paragraph.
5.
Use the Form Feed (FF) button to print a test receipt.
5.
Close the cabinet door and discard the test receipt.
