GETTING STARTED

Use this

with your

Paxar Monarch Sierra Sport™ 3R 9430R Printer.

This three-inch printer works with various hosts using the

RS232 communications port. It also supports IrDA and

optional Bluetooth communications. See Appendix A,

“Specifications” for more information about IrDA and

Bluetooth. The 9430R printer can print text, bar codes,

and limited graphics on thermal direct receipt paper.

Use this manual to

♦ charge the battery

♦ load supplies

♦ clean the printer

♦ troubleshoot the printer.

The printer comes packaged with two rolls of supply (one

already loaded in the printer), a battery (included with

select printers), a belt clip, and a plug-in charger

(included with select printers).

You may need to refer to the

included on the CD-ROM. It provides an explanation of

how to use the printer's command language.

The 9430R printer is designed to print up to 1000 inches

per day. The average print rate is 1 inch every 10

seconds at a text character print density of 25% (i.e., one

character printed out of every four positions). Bar codes

and graphics are more dense (print with more dots) than

text and may need a lower duty cycle. In high

temperature environments, pause the printer for one

minute after every four (4) inches printed. If the duty

cycle is exceeded, the printer may not print all of the

information that was sent to it.
