7. PRINTER
7.1. Printer Output
The printing is made on thermal paper with 24 characters per line and
contains the following information:
• Software version
• Real time
• Selected program
• Sterilization pressure
• Sterilization temperature
• Sterilization time
• Dry time
When the sterilization cycle begins the printer starts printing the above
data.
After the preliminary printing, the autoclave starts performing the
sequence of operations of the cycle. The measured values of
temperature and pressure are printed at fixed time intervals, according
to the phase of the process, as shown in the table on the next page.
The data is printed from the bottom up, beginning with the date and
ending with “CYCLE ENDED” for a sterilization cycle or "TEST
ENDED". For an aborted cycle, “CYCLE FAIL” and the Error number
are printed (refer to "Displayed Error and Operational Messages").
For an example of a typical printout, see next page.
