Before Starting a Print Job
Always check the following points:
• Unit connected correctly? (page 12)
• Printer driver installed? (page 12)

• Printer driver settings done correctly? (Setup Guide)
Starting a Print Job
1
Press the 1 On/standby switch to turn the unit on.
The 1 On/standby lamp lights green.
2
Execute the print job with the application software.
If the unit stops printing during prolonged
printing
When printing almost black images continuously, the
thermal head protection circuit may shut down the unit
to prevent the thermal head from overheating. In such a
case, the PRINT lamp blinks slowly.
Leave the unit until the head cools down and the PRINT
lamp lights.
Canceling a Print Job
To cancel a print job in progress, press the FEED button.
Feeding Paper
To feed paper, press the FEED button. The unit will
continue to feed paper as long as you hold down the
FEED button. Do not attempt to pull paper out of the
unit with your hand.
Cutting Paper
Hold the printer firmly, then pull the paper diagonally
upwards and cut it as shown in the figure.
When the paper cutter on the bottom is
used
Hold the bottom of the paper you want to cut and pull
diagonally downwards to cut.
Note
The paper cutter on the bottom is positioned at the left
and right edges. If you attempt to cut the paper by
holding the paper at its center, it may not be cut well.
