“Printer - No Paper” will appear in Area 2 of the LCD and an
audible alarm will sound. In addition, the message “No Paper” will
appear next to “PRNT” in Area 3 of the LCD. To clear the alarm,
press the SelectKnob. The message in Area 3 of the LCD will
remain until new paper is installed and the printer door is closed.
(See “Using the Menu System.”)
Installing new paper will cause the Critikon DINAMAP Compact
header to be printed, thereby confirming that the paper is installed
correctly and that the printer is operational. The message next to
“PRNT” in Area 3 of the LCD will change to “Auto” or “Man” to
identify the operating mode of the printer. After power-off, the
operating mode of the printer returns to the previous user-selected
setting (Auto or Man) unless specified otherwise in the Print button
under the Service Button.
Cleaning
If the print quality is reduced, the print head can be cleaned with a
cotton swap saturated with isopropyl alcohol. For preventive
maintenance, clean the print head once a month.
Storage
Store thermal paper in a cool, dry place. The printed strip (thermal
paper recording) should not be
• exposed to direct sunlight,
• exposed to temperatures over 100 ˚F/38 ˚C or relative
humidity over 80%, or
• placed in contact with adhesives, adhesive tapes, or plasticizers
such as those found in all PVC page protectors.
Note: When in doubt about long-term storage conditions, store a
photocopy of the thermal paper recording.
Cautions
•The paper is thermally activated; therefore, do not store it in a
hot place as discoloration may result.
•Only use replacement paper rolls from Critikon.
