Printer
Why is my printer only printing unreadable symbols?
Check if the printer module is well-connected with the main unit. Unplug the printer mod-
ule by grasping it firmly and pulling it apart from the main unit, and then re-connecting it.
This should correct the problem. If you are still experiencing unreadable printing, contact
your local distributor for assistance.
Does the X431 Kit include extra printer paper?
Yes. It includes one extra roll.
What type of paper does the printer use?
The printer uses thermal, calculator-sized paper.
Can I purchase this paper in my local office supply store?
If you can find the correct size thermal paper (30 x 57mm, 7mm bore diameter) by all
means, purchase it yourself locally.
