10-4-3. PU Model (PoweredUSB cable)
When using the PoweredUSB cable, DC 24 V must be supplied to the printer from the sys-
tem. Use a power supply for the printer that meets the following requirements.
Power Requirements
(1) Output: DC 24V ± 5%
(2) Current Consumption (DC 24 V at room temperature)
Low-power consumption mode:
Stand-by: Approx. 0.1A
Mean: Approx. 1.0A (at ASCII continuous printing)
Peak: Approx. 5.0A
(at print duty 100%, for 10 seconds or less)
Standard mode:
Stand-by: Approx. 0.1A
Mean: Approx. 1.4A (at ASCII continuous printing)
Peak: Approx. 10.0A
(at print duty 100%, for 10 seconds or less)
To switch between the standard and low-power consumption modes, refer to chapter 11
for details on the DIP switch settings.
Notes:
There is a danger that there will be a large incoming current when turning the
printer back on after turning it off. Therefore, wait at least 5 seconds before turn-
ing the printer back on.
