9.1 Replacing the Paper

Inserting the Paper Roll

1.+2. Unwind about 10 cm of paper from the roll. Hold

the layers tightly wound, and open the lid of the printer

by slightly pulling the LEVER inside it upward.

3. Put the paper roll in the paper compartment making

sure that the outside is turned toward the printer

mechanism.

4. Close the lid by pressing on it. It will audibly snap

into place, so that the paper can be torn off at the

tear-off edge without the lid opening up, and without

the paper sliding through the print head.

Which thermal paper can be used?

The printer is specified for a paper width of

57.0 ± 0.5 mm, a roll diameter of 31 mm and a paper

thickness of 60 g/m

. The matching paper rolls

GPR-T01-057-031-007-060A (quality: 5 years) are

available from GeBE. Other papers might cause failure.

Other Paper Available from GeBE:

High Temperature Paper

is a paper that will not start to turn black before 100°C

(standard app. 70°C).

This makes it ideal for applications like parking tickets.

Adhesive Labels

are connected through perforation. There is a black

mark between the labels for correct positioning. This is

the only type of labels that can be printed with the

GeBE-FLASH

for iOS.

Long preservation Paper for Documents

is a paper that preserves its printed image for at least 5

years or max. 25 years, if stored dark and dry.

9 Maintenance

The closed printer is protected against static discharges in accordance with the EMC guide-

lines. Since the user may come in contact with parts that are electrically sensitive, when the

printer is open (like the print head during cleaning, or the electronics during a battery

exchange), the user should make sure that all possible static charges are discharged through

sufficient grounding of the body before touching the printer (e.g. by touching grounded

objects like radiators), in order to safely avoid damage to the printer.

Which side of the thermal paper can be

printed on?

Usually, the printable side of a thermal paper roll

is on the outside.
