Main Switch Functions

Power ON: Push once while the printer is OFF.

Power OFF: Push twice quickly.

Manual Form Feed: With power ON and paper inserted, press and hold the main switch to feed (or eject) paper. Manual form feeds cannot be performed for five seconds after the printer has received any data in order to assure that printing is complete before permitting a form feed. The button must then be held down for 1-1/2 seconds to start the form feed.

To Quickly Charge the Battery: With the printer off, push the main switch and hold it down for two or more seconds until the POWER indicator begins to blink. The POWER indicator light continues to blink until charging is complete.

To Power Off During Charge Mode: Push the main switch twice quickly (same as when in normal operating mode).

Service Mode: After powering the unit on, press and hold for 2 seconds until the DATA LED turns red. In this mode you may initiate self test printing (See Chapter 5) or head cleaning (See Chapter 4).
