8.1.5.5 Ticket Load Switch

The ticket load switch should be positioned such that the printer automatically activates the stepper motor at the proper time when tickets are loaded into the printer. When loading tickets, the stepper motor should turn on when the ticket stops in front of the thermal head. At this point, the ticket will be grabbed out of your hand and fed into the printer. If the motor does not activate, make sure the ticket stock is loaded into the printer properly.
