Confidential
• When cleaning is being performed or an error has occurred with any sheet selected.
• When it is disabled with the ESC c 5 command.
There is the case that even if the paper source is changed, the printer may feed the previously
selected paper source.
A slip will be fed in the following case; if roll paper is selected as the paper source with the slip
paper clamped and the PAPER FEED button is pressed before the printer receives data from the
host.
CLEANING
If printing becomes faint or uneven and the INK OUT LED is not on or flashing, use this button to
clean the print head. Press the button until the printer mechanism begins to clean the print head
(more than 3 seconds). When the cleaning stops, the printer is ready for normal printing.
Note:
Do not use the CLEANING button unless there is a problem with print quality. Unnecessary cleaning
will waste ink.

Power Switch and Power Switch Cover

The power switch is on the front of the printer. Press the power switch to turn on the printer.
Note:
Turn on the power only after connecting the power supply.

Executing the power-off sequence

It is recommended to turn the power off only after executing the power-off command (DLE DC4
fn = 2). If the power is turned off without executing the power-off command, the ink will be
wasted since the cleaning is done when the printer is turned on the next time, or the ink nozzle
will be clogged if the unused period exceeds two weeks.
Note:
Never open the printer cover or turn off the printer when the POWER LED is flashing.
