Table 7. Troubleshooting – Models TF7 and TM7

If the problem is...

Here’s what to do...

 

 

Printer ready indicator is OFF.

v Check that the printer power switch, which is located under the top cover, is

 

 

set ON.

 

v If connected to a system using the RS-485 communication port, check that the

 

 

system is powered on and cable 7 is connected.

 

v If using the RS-232 communication port or a USB port with a power brick,

 

 

check that the brick power supply is connected to the printer and plugged into

 

 

an ac power source.

 

v If using USB communication with a powered USB cable, check that the

 

 

system is powered ON.

 

 

Printer ready indicator is blinking.

v Check that the customer receipt station has paper loaded correctly. Close the

 

 

cover and push the Customer Receipt Feed button to feed a small amount of

 

 

paper.

 

v Check that the cover is closed.
