Citizen Systems Understanding the Operation Panel and Error Displays for IDP 3551

4.11Operation Panel and Display of Error

1.POWER lamp (Green)

This lamp is illuminated when the power is supplied.

2.ERROR lamp (Red)

This lamp is illuminated or blinks to indicate each error.

Error Indication			SEL/ERROR Lamp		Buzzer		Resetting Method
Mechanical Error			Quick blinking	Sounds	continuously	for	Reset	the	Power
				approx. 1 second			switch.
Paper End			Blinks.	Repeats a short 3-time			Set a new paper roll.
				sound twice at intervals of
				0.5 second.
Paper Near End			Blinks.	Repeats a short 3-time			Set a new paper roll.
			(Once a second)	sound twice at intervals of
				0.5 second.
Cutter Motor Lock			Quick blinking	Sounds	continuously	for	Eliminate a paper jam.
(iDP-3551 only)			(Twice a second)	approx. 1 second.
Mechanical Error	: If the printer mechanism has a greater load due to a paper jam, etc., the buzzer
		will sound and the SEL/ERROR lamp will blink to stop the printer mechanism.
Paper End	: If the printer has run out of paper, the paper sensor in the paper path near the
		print head will detect the end of the paper roll, turn on the buzzer, and blink the
		SEL/ERROR lamp to stop the printer mechanism. If the paper is inserted into
		the paper path, the paper will be loaded. (See 4.6 Inserting the Paper)
Paper Near End	: If the paper is running out, the paper near end sensor will be activated to turn on
		the buzzer and make the SEL/ERROR lamp blink. Even after the paper near
		end is detected, a command can be used to print by the specified number of
		lines. (See a description on the command for setting the number of print lines
		after paper near end detection)
Cutter Motor Lock	: If the cutter position detection sensor in the cutter unit is left turned on or off
(iDP-3551)		for approx. 1 second while the cutter motor is running, cutter operation and
		printing will be suspended, determining it to be motor lock.
Backup Data Clear	: When the power is turned on, depending on the SEL switch operation, the
		backup data in the input buffer will be cleared according to the flowchart on the
		next page.
		To clear the input buffer, turn on the power while pressing the SEL switch. The
		following messages will be printed.
		“Clear Data in Buffer”
		“Cleared Data in Buffer”
		To print the data in the input buffer, simply turn the power on. The following
		message is printed and the data in the input buffer is printed.
		“Power Down(Data in Buffer)”
Test Print		When the power is turned on while the LF switch is pressed, a test print is
		carried out.
