TIMEOUT
In order to prevent overheating, the Printer is
equipped
with an automatic timeout
cycle
which
halts printing for
approximately
three
seconds.
During
continuous
use you will notice that the
printer stops periodically
and
then
continues.
Fre-
quent
timeouts
indicate
that
the
Printer
is
operating CORRECTLY. Any
attempt
to override
the timeout period is likely to damage your Printer.
