The print speed is up to 100 mm per second. 03/03/2009 TTP 1020 /TTP 1030 Technical Manual P

10 10 Product Presentation Status Indicator The printer has an integrated control board. The TTP 1020 communicates with the host computer through an IEEE-1284 bi-directional parallel port. The TTP 1030 communicates with the host computer through an RS-232 serial interface or an USB port. Drivers are available for Windows and Linux, and the printer is compatible with the Plug and Play standard. It is also possible to address the printer directly from the kiosk software without using Windows. The loop generating presenter mechanism handles documents of various lengths. It holds the receipt until printed, then cuts and presents the complete receipt to the customer. A flip-up printer mechanism gives the operator access to the paper path, and print head, for maintenance purposes. Status Indicator The yellow status indicator has several functions: ON constantly the printer is operational Blinks, pauses, blinks indicates non-severe error. The number of blinks reflects the error code: Number of Error code blinks 1 Presenter jam 2 Cutter stuck 3 No paper at head 4 Head up 5 Paper-feed error 6 Temp error Flashes rapidly indicates severe error. The printer must be reset to be operable again. Hold down the feed-forward button and the number of blinks will reflect the error code. Feed-forward (FF) Button When you insert the paper through the paper entry the printer will feed it forward, cut and eject a receipt, then switch to on-line mode. Use the feed-forward button if you want to advance the paper forward further. To feed paper: 1. Press and hold the button, paper-feed starts. 2. Release the button to stop paper feed. You can also use the feed-forward button to print a self-test receipt. See Making a Test Printout on page 17. P TTP 1020 /TTP 1030 Technical Manual 03/03/2009
