Operation
Overheat detector
If the printer is printing continuously for extended periods of time, the
print head may become overheated.
When
this occurs,
an
internal
protective circuit will cause the printer
to
pause until the head
temperature decreases sufficiently, at which time the printer will
automatically resume printing without loss of data. This feature is
included to extend the life of the print head.
