time. The default reset time is 8 AM.
You can set up automatic printing every day before the reset. To set and
change the Automatic daily min/max print time and memory reset, see

When the VLTS is set to print readings automatically, but at that same time any
report is printed, then at the end of the printing of the report, the VLTS will
complete printing all the value readings measured at the time of printing the
report so that there will be no missing measurements in the print.
Advancing and Replacing the Printing Paper
The VLTS device uses only thermal paper for printing! The roll is 2” wide (57 mm), and
printing is done only on one side, by heat instead of ink.
Red color on the margin of the paper roll means that the roll of paper is nearing its end.
In that case, replace the paper roll before it reaches the end, so as to prevent it from
jamming the printer.
To replace a roll of paper, first release the old roll:
1. Press as many times as you like to advance the paper out.
2. Tear out the last printout.
3. Open the paper lid and remove the rest of the roll. If the paper is caught in the
printer, cut the paper between them. Be careful not to damage the rubber roller.
4. Press to remove any remaining paper from the printer.
Note: When out of paper, if an out-of-paper alert was set, a yellow LED NO
PAPER will turn on, the alert contact will close, the prompt Attention! Out of
paper will be displayed, and the buzzer will go off, if so set. To mute the buzzer,
press . For the readings display, press .
5. Before placing a new paper roll, remove a length of about 10” from it, as the zinc
that it contains gradually depletes from the paper during the long exposure to heat
and light.
