4.0 Installation

The FSP is designed to be mounted on a counter top or shelf. However, prior to site preparation and installation, the printer should be powered up and run in the self test mode. Lay the printer flat on a counter. Please confirm that the line voltage agrees with the voltage listed on the label affixed to the side of the unit (see figure 4). Attach the AC cord and serial/remote interface cables into the proper connectors as shown in figure 4. Turn power on (figure 2) and you will hear the cutter motor cycle. The LCD will display PAPER OUT.
