A.2 Notes on Printer Installation
· When transporting the TM-H5000, the dampers are in the left side of the slip section and in
the bottom of the paper roll section. Therefore, remove the dampers before using the
printer.
· Connect the external power supply to the power supply connector of the printer. Then plug
in the external power supply and turn it on if necessary. Be sure not to connect the external
power supply with the wrong polarity. If it is connected incorrectly, the internal circuit fuse
of the printer may be blown or the external power supply may be damaged.
· The power supply voltage is within the range of 24 V ± 10% (21.6 ~ 26.4V)
If the power supply voltage drops to the outside of the range above during printing, the
printer stops printing and waits until the voltage returns to normal and then automatically
begins printing again. Therefore, printing speed may slow, the print pitch may not be
correct, and some dots in some characters may not be printed.
· Both high and low voltage errors are shown in table 3.7.3. The blinking patterns are shown
in the table.
· When either a high or low voltage error occurs, turn off the power as soon as possible.
A.3 Other Notes
1) Printer mechanism handling on the receipt side
· Because the thermal elements of the print head and driver IC are easy to break, do not
touch them with any metal objects.
· Since the areas around the print head become very hot during and just after printing, do
not touch them.
· Do not use the cover open button except when necessary.
· Do not touch the surface of the print head because dust and dirt can stick to the surface
and damage the elements.
· Thermal paper containing Na
-
, K
-
, and C1
-
ions can harm the print head thermal elements.
Therefore, be sure to use only the specified paper.
· Label paper cannot be used.
