Printer

Take-up spool

Paper roll cradle

Paper chute

Print head release lever

The printer is a receipt/journal dual station type thermal printer, and therefore it does not require any type of ink ribbon or cartridge.

Lift the rear of the printer cover to remove. To re-install, hook the pawls on the cabinet and close.

Caution: The paper cutter is mounted on the printer (receipt side). Be careful not to cut yourself.

Print head release lever

The print head can be lifted by the green lever on the right side of the printer. Pulling the lever forward lifts up the print head. If the paper becomes jammed and you need to move the head farther forward, you can pull the lever even further toward you and proceed with the removal of the jammed paper.

Do not attempt to remove the paper roll with the head in the down position. This may result in damage to the printer and print head.
