1. INTRODUCTION Portable or desktop: The CGPrint series may be used as a desktop/wall-hung unit or as a hand-held/belt-hung, battery-operated unit to meet a wide variety of needs. It is ideal for EFT (electronic fund transfer) and POS (point of sales) transactions, in-the-field receipting and other applications that require a small foot print and/or portability. It also offers in-vehicle receipting for taxi and other public transportation provides.

4. OPERATIONS 4.1. Connecting the AC adapter (1) Ensure that the power switch is OFF. (2) Insert the output plug of the AC adapter into the DC jack of the printer. (3) Insert the power plug of the AC adapter into a power consent supplying the designated voltage. Warning : Use of exclusive AC adapter is recommended. Output is DC 12V/8OOmA. Avoid using power sources not conforming to this specification.
4.2. Setting of the printer cover (1) Hold the protruding section at the rear of the printer cover and lift in the direction indicated. (2) Attach the cover by pressing downward after hooking the cover to the acceptor located in the front part.
4.3. Setting ribbon cassettes (1) Remove the printer cover after turning OFF the printer. (2) Press down on the ribbon cassette while inserting the ribbon between the printing head and platen. (3) Wind up the ribbon slack by turning the knob in the direction of the arrow.
4.4. Setting paper (1) Remove the printer cover. (2) Ensure that the end of the paper is straight or incline. (3) Insert the end of the paper into the slot of the printer mechanism. (4) After turning on the printer, press LF switch until 5 to 6 cm of paper is fed out of the printer mechanism. (5) Insert paper after moving aside the paper holder in the direction of the arrow. Then, secure the center of the roll with the holder.
4.5. Change and charge the accumulator 4.5.1. Change the accumlator (1) Remove the accumlator cover after the turn Off the printer (2) Insert the accumulator plug of the printer. (3) Remove the accumlator cover. 4.5.2. State of accumulator State of the accumulator signalizing the tree lamp on the control panel. If lighting the green lamp accumlator is ready, if lighting the yellow lamp the accumlator medium and is lighting red lamp need the charging period. This lamp signalizing the charging period.
4.5.3. Charge the accumulator This products has a quick accumulator charger inside. If the accumulators too low occur insert the output plug of the AC adapter into the DC jack of the printer. The lighted lamp indicates the right connection. After 1 hours accumulators 70% and more than 2 hours needed to approx. 100% charged state. Proposition : Always charge the unit overnight when charging to obtain a full charge. NiCd accumulators have an inherent "memory".
4.7. Self test printing A self-printing function is in corporate in this product to enable the printer to check itself. This function works only in "manual control mode" (DIP4 OFF) and is triggered by the following procedure. (1) Set paper to the printer. (2) Ensure that the ribbon cassette is attached correctly and turn the power OFF. (3) Turn ON the power switch while holding the LF switch down. Release the LF switch after the selfprinting operation has started. Printing is initiated by this operation.

7. CONTROL COMMAND 7.1. Print control commands 1. Printing command (CR) If selection code CR (0Dh) is inputted, data in print buffer is printed and paper feed is performed when serial data is inputted. When graphic (mosaic) printing is performed, line feed is not performed by the print command, and graphic printing is allowed on the next line. 2. Cancellation command for input data (CAN) If CAN code (18h) is inputted, all data which are inputted before CAN code (18h) on the same line are canceled. 3.
4/a. Set spacing between lines (ESC+A+n) Dot line space setting is determined by entering the code ESC+A+n. Initial setting is 2 dot line space. The n should be an even number in the range of 0 < n <255. Note: If an odd number is entered, the dot line is set to "n-1". Continuous printing is enabled by specifying n=0 or 1. 4/b.Bit image data translation (ESC+K+n1+n2+n3) By entering ESC+K+n1+n2+n3, print mode is swiched from the text mode to bit image mode.
Note 2: Although the printer return to text mode when bit image mode printout is completed, line spacing is set to 0 to enable further output in the bit image mode. Line feed is required in order to commence text mode output. For bit image printing, inverted printing is not performed but normal printing, even if the DIP switch 1 is set to "ON". Example: UP-24/X 1 dot line full dot printing 1Bh 4Bh 12h 01h 00h FFh......FFh ESC + K + n1 + n2 + n3 total 18 data 4/c.
registered in an address already in use, existing data is cleared and the newly entered data becomes valid. If more than 8 characters are registered, all existing character registration is cleared. [Address setting] Specified address is matched to the character code and can be accessed likewise to the stored fixed character record. If a fixed character is defined in the specified address, the fixed character becomes invalid.
[Pattern data configuration] d-3. In case of UP-24/X (24 columns) specification Pattern data to be registered must consist of 6 bytes per character. That is,pattern data configured by a 6x8 dot matrix is broken up into 6 vertically positioned units each of which is represented by 1 byte of data. All together, 6 bytes of data are transmitted. Example : When transmitting the following data, 0 1 2 3 4 5 5 0 1 63h 41h 2 55h 3 49h 4 41h 41h d-4.
