5. EXTERNAL PRINTER (OPTION)
5.1 CHECKING THE PRINTER
Before launching any cycle or reprinting the printout, check the quantity of paper of the printer
roller.
5.2 CHOICE OF THE SUITABLE PAPER ROLLS
It is recommended that a high quality thermal paper be used with a minimum of seven years life
expectancy. The use of non-approved products can cause dust and increased wear. This can
affect the warranty. The paper roll is delivered separately in order to prevent it from unrolling or
becoming damaged during transport. Consult your GETINGE LANCER representative about
suitable paper rolls.
5.3 REMOVING PAPER AND CLEARING PAPER JAMS
If there is some paper in the printer when a new roll is necessary or a paper jam has occurred,
simply open the cover and press the paper advance button.
5.4 LOADING PAPER
1. Slide the cover opening button forward until it opens.
2. Unroll a small amount of paper and insert the paper roll in
the printer.
3. Close the cover, the paper has been loaded.
Pressing on the paper advance button while the printer is on standby mode makes the paper advance.
However, the advance button has several other functions:
Pressing the button once and releasing it:
In standby mode, makes the paper advance.
In sleep mode, makes the printer go into the standby mode.
In standby mode, a “double click” on the button•, prints out a sample message.
5.5 OPERATING MODES
“Stand-by mode”: ready to receive data but there is no data waiting to be printed out in the buffer
and the printer engine is not turning.
“Sleep mode”: actually disabled. If the paper advance button is pressed, the external charger
connected or external data is received, the printer leaves sleep mode and enters stand-by mode.
The LED is off in sleep mode.
There is no switch. Powering up is automatic or carried out by a command received from the
washer-disinfector. To save energy, the printer enters sleep mode after a period of inactivity. The
printer can be also programmed to always remain active or to enter sleep mode on command.
5.6 PRINTER MAINTENANCE
After a certain time of use, it may prove necessary to remove paper dust from inside and around
the mechanism. Use a small vacuum for cleaning.
