4. MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
4.1 Setting/Replacing the paper roll
1. Lift the cover open lever.
2. Open the printer cover.
3. Insert a paper roll with its print area facing down
as shown in the figure and pull out the paper
end straightforward by several cm out of the
printer.
4. Firmly close the printer cover until a click can
be heard. With the factory setting, the paper is
fed and cut automatically.
See 5.3 Manual Setting of Memory Switch
CAUTION!
■ Always use the specified types of paper roll.
■ Confirm that the paper roll is set correctly.
■ When the paper is skewed and not extended straightforward from under the printer
cover, open the printer cover and adjust the paper correctly.
■ When the cover is opened after paper setting, be sure to pull the paper straightforward
by several cm out of the printer, and then close the cover.
■ When closing the printer cover, press on the center part of the cover to close it firmly.
■ When setting paper, be careful not to have your finger injured by the paper edge.
WARNING
When opening the printer cover, DO NOT touch the print head or cutter blade. Otherwise,
burning or injury of hand may result.
4.2 Removing Jammed Paper
1. Turn the POS terminal power off.
2. Open the printer cover.
If the cutter blade remains protruded with paper jammed, do not open the
printer cover forcibly. Referring to section 4.4, restore the blade to the normal
position and then open the cover.
3. Remove the jammed paper including any paper chips remaining.
4. Turn on the POS terminal. The auto cutter mechanism is initialized and the
alarm is cleared.
CAUTION!
■ If the cutter blade remains protruded with paper jammed, DO NOT open the printer
cover forcibly. If the cutter blade cannot be restored, contact your Citizen Systems
dealer.
■ The print head is hot immediately after printing. DO NOT touch it with your hand. DO
NOT touch the heating element of the head with a bare hand or metal object either.

4.5 Hexadecimal Dump Printing
This function is to print all received data in hexadecimal numbers. If problems
such as missing data, data duplication, etc. should occur, this function allows
checking whether or not the printer is receiving data correctly.
Set paper to the printer and keep the printer cover open. With the FEED button
pressed and held, turn the printer power on and then close the printer cover.
The printer prints “HEX dump print mode” followed by the received data printed
in hexadecimal numbers and some characters.
CAUTION!
■ The printer prints “.” if there is no characters corresponding to data.
■ During hexadecimal dump, functions except some command will be disabled.
■ If print data DOES NOT cover a line, press the FEED button to print the line.
When you press the FEED button three times consecutively, or you turn the
printer power off, or the printer receives a reset signal from the interface, the
hexadecimal dump printing is terminated.

4.6 Error Indication
● Paper end
Paper empty is detected in two steps: paper near-end and paper end. It causes the
ERROR LED to light. If paper end is detected, refill the paper. If the printer cover is
open, a paper-end is detected.
● Printer cover open
During printing, do not open the printer cover. If you open the printer cover
accidentally, the ERROR LED blinks. Check the paper, pull the paper straightforward
by several cm out of the printer, and then close the printer cover. Printing resumes
automatically. Sending a command to resume printing may be required depending
on the memory switch setting.
● Thermal head overheat
When you print dense characters or dark image, the head temperature rises. If the
head temperature exceeds a specified level, the printer stops printing operation
and waits till the head temperature is lowered. During waiting, the ERROR LED
blinks. When the head temperature is lowered, printing resumes automatically.
● Cutter lock
If the cutter blade stops operating due to paper jam or the like, the ERROR LED
blinks. Remove the cause of the trouble and press the FEED button. If the blade
still does not move and the cover cannot be opened, contact your dealer.

Manual Setting of Memory Switch (Memory SW)
The memory switch can be selected, changed, or written by the combination of
three actions: pressing the FEED button, pressing and holding the FEED button,
and opening or closing the printer cover.
1. Entering memory switch setting mode.
Set paper to the printer and keep the printer cover open. With the FEED
button pressed and held, turn the printer power on, and then press the
FEED button twice. Close the cover. If the current settings of the memory
switch etc. are printed, the printer is now in the memory switch setting
mode.
0: OFF state
1: ON state
Memory SW (1) 00000000
(No indication for 0/1 with memory switch 7-10)

2. Selecting memory switch
When the FEED button is pressed short (within 2 seconds), printing occurs
in the order of “Memory SW1” → “Memory SW2” → “Memory SW3” →
......“Memory SW10” → “Save To Memory” → “Memory SW1” → ......
repeatedly. When the memory switch you want to change is reached,
press and hold the FEED button (for more than 2 seconds).
3. Selecting each switch item
3-8 items are provided for setting in each switch. By pressing and holding
the FEED button long, the printer goes to the next item and prints the
current setting of the item. Repeat pressing and holding till the item you
want to change is reached.
OFF state: ERROR LED OFF
ON state: ERROR LED ON
Power ON Info (Valid
)
(With memory switch 7-10, ERROR LED goes on only at the factory setting.)
4. Changing the setting
When the item you want to change is printed, press the FEED button short.
The changed set value is printed. (When change of set value is repeated,
the original set value is recovered). When you press the FEED button long,
the set value is accepted and then the printer goes to the next setting item.
5. Returning to the memory switch select mode
When the setting of the desired content is completed, open the printer
cover and then close the printer cover. This allows the printer to print the
setting of the changed memory switch.
6. Saving the setting and exiting the memory switch setting mode
Press the FEED button short to move to “Save To Memory”. Then press
and hold the FEED button. The printer prints the content of new setting
and exits the memory switch setting mode to return to the normal standby
state.
* Unless saving the setting is executed, the changed setting cannot be
enabled.
7. Initializing the memory switch
When you want to return the memory switch setting to the initial state, go
to “Save To Memory” in the above procedure. Here, open the printer
cover and press and hold the FEED button till buzzer sounds. This allows
the printer to return to the initial state.
* All the memory switches settings are returned to the factory set values.
