Operation

Media Loading

The printer can print text, bar codes and some limited graphics on thermal receipt paper. See “Media
Specifications” for the width, thickness requirements and approved vendors.

Follow these steps to load printer paper:

1. Open the paper supply door by placing your fingers under

the “T” pull lever and pulling up firmly on the supply
cover until the lever stops moving.

Note: Do not pull too hard. Use enough force to allow the

cover to unlock and lift freely

2. Place the paper supply roll into the paper supply well.

Make sure the paper supply unwinds from the bottom as
shown.

3. Position the paper supply between the print head guides.

4. Make sure some supply (2-3 inches) extends beyond the

top of the paper supply well.

5. Close the paper supply door.

Tearing Off Print Job

The printer’s paper supply door acts as a tear bar. Pull one edge of the paper against the tear bar as shown
below, then tear down and across against the tear bar to remove receipts.

Using the tear bar is the only way to tear the
paper. Pulling up and pulling sideways
without using the tear bar may cause the
paper door to open and the paper roll to fall
out.

Caution: The tear bar may have sharp edges.
