Preparation Overview Connection The UP-960/960CE is a monochrome video graphic printer that reproduces images Notes from video equipment. Large size picture can be printed out quickly and easily • Turn off the power to each device before making any connections.
Setting the DIP Switches 3 SHARPNESS switch You can set the printer to the required print mode using the DIP switches. The printer has two kinds of DIP switches; SOFT (ON): Normally keep this switch set to this position. • DIP switch on the sub panel HARD (OFF): Obtains greater sharpness of printouts.
Setting the DIP Switches (Continued) 3, 4 SCAN size switches Set the printout range. The printout range is widened in the NORM, WIDE 1, Setting the DIP Switches on the Rear Panel and WIDE 2 order. NORM (Switch 3: OFF): Prints only the image displayed on the standard The factory settings are as follows.
• Use only paper made specially for the UP-960 series. (See page 49.) The printout will be longer than a printout made at 4:3. Press the power ON/OFF switch to turn on the printer.
Operation Printing Loading Paper (Continued) Place the paper roll in the printer. Before making printouts • Are the connections correct? (page33) • Is the paper roll loaded properly? (page 39) Place the paper with • Are the DIP switches set correctly? (page 34) the thermo-sensitive side (printing side) up.
Printing (Continued) To stop printing and print another picture displayed on the video Selecting the Printing Direction/Printing Size monitor To do this, the INTERRUPT setting of the DIP switches must be set to ON. (See You can make variations of printouts using the IMAGE SIZE selectors and the DIP page 38.) switches.
Printing (Continued) Adjusting the Contrast and Brightness Variations of printouts STD (standard) mode You can adjust the contrast and brightness of the printout. NORMAL SMALL SIDE mode To adjust the contrast You can adjust the contrast of printouts using the CONTR control. To make the contrast stronger: Turn the CONTR control clockwise.
Others Precautions On the safety Maintenance • Check the operating voltage before operation. Operate the unit only with a power source specified in the “Specifications”. Cleaning the cabinet • Stop operation immediately if any liquid or solid objects fall into the cabinet. Do not use strong solvents to clean the printer.
Paper Precautions (Continued) Insert the cleaning sheet, with the black surface facing down, into the paper Type of paper insertion slot and feed the paper with your hands until the end comes out from the paper outlet. • Use only paper specified for this printer. The use of other paper may result in reduced printer performance and poor print quality.

SECTION 4 CIRCUIT OPERATION DESCRIPTION OUTLINE Electrical circuit of UP-960/960CE consists of following blocks. VIDEO CIRCUIT TRAP filter and AGC process are performed against input video signal and A/D converted. MEMORY & HEAD CONTROL G/A Print data is fetched frame memory (DRAM). Image data on the memory is converted into PWM and sent it to the thermal head.

Therefore, the energy applied to each resistor has an error. If printing operation is performed without this correction, as a result, there is a line on the print where numbers of ON resistor are rapidly changed. And this unit has IC601 that includes correction circuit of this. UP-960(UC) 4-15 UP-960CE(CE)
