OPERATOR MAINTENANCE

1In case of Power Failure

When power is lost, the machine retains its memory contents and all information on sales entries.

When a power failure is encountered in register idle state or during an entry, the machine returns to normal operation after power recovery.

When a power failure is encountered during a printing cycle, the register prints “============” and then carries out the correct printing procedure after power recovery. (See the sample print.)

2In Case of Printer Error

If the printer runs out of paper, the printer will stall, and “PAPER EMPTY” will appear on the display. Key entries will not be accepted. Refer to section 4 in this chapter, install a new roll, then press the lkey. The printer will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

If the print head comes up, the printer stalls, “HEAD UP” will appear on the display. Key entries will not be accepted. Bring the print head back to the correct position, then press the lkey. The printer will print the power failure symbol and resume printing.

Cautions in handling the recording paper (thermal paper)

Use only paper specified by SHARP.

Do not unpack the thermal paper until you are ready to use it.

Avoid heat. The paper will color at around 70°C.

Avoid dusty and humid storage places. Avoid direct sunlight.

The printed text on the paper can discolor under conditions of high humidity and temperature, exposure to direct sunlight, contact with glue, thinner or a freshly copied blueprint, and heat caused by friction from scratching or other means.

Be very careful when handling the thermal paper. If you want to keep a permanent record, copy the printed text with a photocopier.
