data set.

NOTE:

If no data is stored in the Monitor, pressing the PRINT button will cause only the
printout header to be printed.

NOTE:

The printer uses thermal paper, which has a tendancy to fade over time, especially
when exposed to heat and light. For more permanent records, it is recommended that
the printout be photocopied.

Printing Options: batch print or streaming print mode

The operator may choose to print all stored data in either batch print mode (all stored data printed
simultaneously) or streaming print mode (data printed automatically at the time it is stored). Batch
print mode is the default setting for the Welch Allyn Vital Signs Monitor.

To change the print mode, press both the START button and the POWER button simultaneously.
This activates the Monitor’s internal configuration mode. After all of the current software versions
are displayed on the Monitor, press the REVIEW button 8 times. The current print mode will appear
in the systolic and diastolic displays as either “bAt Pr” (batch print mode) or “Str Pr” (streaming
print mode). Press the SET (arrow up and arrow down) buttons to toggle between the two print
mode choices. When the desired print mode is displayed, press the REVIEW button again, then turn
the Monitor off. Turn the Monitor on by pressing the POWER button. The desired printing mode will
now be operational.

If batch print mode is chosen, all data in the Monitor’s memory will be printed whenever the PRINT
button is pressed.
