Connecting the Power Supply

Use the optional Ithaca Bestec BPA-601-24-1984 or equivalent power supply for your printer. The
following illustration shows the power cable connector and pin assignments. The power cable
connector is a 3-pin mini-DIN plug and is located in the small cavity under the printer.

WARNING:
Make sure that you use the Ithaca Bestec BPA-601-24-1984 power supply or equivalent. Using an
incorrect power supply may cause fire or electrical shock.
CAUTIONS:
If the power supply's rated voltage and your outlet's voltage do not match, contact your dealer for
assistance. Do not plug in the power cord. Otherwise, you may damage the power supply or the
printer.
Make sure that the power supply's power cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet.
Check the label on the power supply to make sure that the voltage required by the power supply
matches that of your electrical outlet.
Plug in the power supply's cable as shown below. Notice that the flat side of the plug faces up.
NOTE: To remove the DC cable connector, grasp the connector at the arrow, and pull it straight out.
INSTALLING OR REPLACING THE PAPER ROLL
NOTE: Be sure to use paper rolls that meet specifications.
1. Make sure that the printer is in the idle state.
2. Open the paper roll cover by pressing the cover open button located in the forward corner of the
printer cover.
3. Remove the used paper roll core if there is one.
4. Insert the paper roll with the shiny side facing down.
5. Assure that a small amount of paper extends over the front side of the printer. Then close the
cover until it locks into place.
6. Depress the paper feed button to activate the vertical motor, and toss out the scrap paper. Units
with a cutter will automatically cut the paper off for you, if your printer does not have a
mechanical cutter, simply tear the paper off by pulling it against the printer cover at an angle.
