Printing Guidelines

The verifier supports two different Hand Held Products serial printers:

•Quick Check® Standard Speed Printer (QCP)

•Quick Check® High Speed Printer (QCHSP) The QCP and QCHSP are both impact printers.

When you first receive your printer, you should unpack it carefully. Before attempting to use it, inspect the contents of the package for any shipping damage. If there is evidence of damage, please keep ALL packing materials and contact the delivery carrier as soon as possible for the claim procedure.

Confirm that you have the following items:

•Printer

•One roll of paper

•Power supply

For optimal printer performance, follow these general guidelines for any type of printer:

•Never place the printer where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

•Never apply power while you are plugging or unplugging an input connector.

•Do not print without paper or a ribbon because this may damage the print head.

•Do not subject the printer to temperatures below 5° C or above 40° C during operations or to a sudden change in temperature.

•Insert the connectors so that a slight pressure seats the cable properly. Never force the connectors because this could

damage the cable.

Using the QCP or QCHSP

The QCP and QCHSP models are shown on page 5-7.
