There is the case that even if the paper source is changed, the printer may feed the previously selected paper source. A slip will be fed in the following case; if roll paper is selected as the paper source with the slip paper clamped and the PAPER FEED button is pressed before the printer receives data from the host.
Confidential TM-J7000/TM-J7100 Developer’s Guide Power Switch Cover You can use the enclosed power switch cover to make sure that the power switch is not accidentally pressed. Just press the cover into place to install it. If you need to turn the power switch on or off with the cover attached, you can insert a thin tool into one of the holes in the cover to operate the switch. WARNING: If an accident occurs when the power switch cover is attached, immediately unplug the power supply cable to avoid fire.
Confidential CAUTION: Be sure to use roll paper that meets the specifications. Follow these steps to install or replace paper: 1. Make sure the printer is on. 2. Open the roll paper cover by pressing the cover open button. 3. Remove the used roll paper core if there is one. 4. Put the roll paper inside the printer in the correct direction, as shown in the illustrations below. 5.
Confidential TM-J7000/TM-J7100 Developer’s Guide Inserting Slip Paper Note: Be sure the paper is flat, without curls, folds, or wrinkles. Do not insert any multiple sheet paper because this may cause a paper jam. Use only single sheet paper. Because the printer is an inkjet printer, pressure sensitive copy paper cannot be used. To prevent jams, roll paper must be installed even for printing on slip paper.
Confidential A used cartridge may have some ink on the convex part of the bottom of the cartridge. Avoid touching that part to keep your hands clean. Do not puncture the convex part of the bottom of the ink cartridge or remove the transparent film on the bottom of the ink cartridge; otherwise the ink might leak. Once the ink cartridge is used, the ink supply needle (plastic projection) in the ink cartridge holder that supplies ink to the printer is covered with ink.
Confidential TM-J7000/TM-J7100 Developer’s Guide 4. Open the ink cartridge cover using the tabs on the sides of the cover. 5. Lift up the empty ink cartridge by using the tab. TM-J7000 TM-J7100 CAUTION: Do not put your fingers inside the ink cartridge compartment or you may be injured by a plastic projection. Once the ink cartridge is used, the ink supply needle (plastic projection) in the ink cartridge holder that supplies ink to the printer is covered with ink.
Confidential 6. Take a new ink cartridge out of its packing and remove the yellow tape. CAUTION: You must not remove any tape on which the EPSON logo is printed. 7. Carefully insert a new ink cartridge from the top and push it firmly but gently until it clicks into place. Be sure the inserting direction is correct, as shown in the illustrations below. TM-J7000 TM-J7100 8. Close the ink cartridge cover completely. Note: The INK OUT LED will now be off.
Confidential TM-J7000/TM-J7100 Developer’s Guide Disposal of Used Cartridges Dispose of used ink cartridges as industrial waste products. Obey the laws and regulations of your country and district. Ink Cartridge Life To make your ink cartridges last as long as possible, follow these simple rules: ❏ Don’t turn off the power supply switch immediately after printing is completed. ❏ Don’t remove an ink cartridge unless you are replacing the cartridge. ❏ Don’t turn the printer on and off unnecessarily.
Confidential 2. The printer will detect the check and start drawing it in. When the printer starts drawing it in, let go of the check immediately. When the printer ejects the check and the CUT SHEET LED starts blinking again; remove the check by pulling it straight up; do not pull it at an angle. Cleaning the MICR Mechanism Approximately every 12 months clean the MICR head with a moistened cleaning sheet.

To start the self-test on roll paper, hold down the receipt FEED button while turning on the printer with the cover closed. 2.
Confidential NOTES: Make sure to use a cut sheet with a width wider than 85 mm {3.35"} because the self-test on the cut sheet is full-column printing regardless of the paper width that is currently selected. If the width of the cut sheet is narrower than full-column print width, the ink may make the platen dirty beyond the edge of the paper. When the self-test is performed on the cut sheet, roll paper also must be loaded.

Confidential Key words in Q & A Category Question Answer What is an active sheet? Any one of the types of paper the printer can process, such as roll paper, a slip sheet, or a check. Why the active sheet is selected? To select the functions the printer can use. For example, roll paper requires certain functions that the other types of paper do not require. GS ( G function 80 selects the active sheet.
Confidential Category Active sheet Print sheet and print side TM-J7000/TM-J7100 Developer’s Guide Question Answer When do you need to select the active sheet with GS ( G function 80? Before image scanning you need to select a check as the active sheet. A check is automatically selected as the active sheet with FS a 0, read check paper; however the check is not selected automatically by GS ( G function 65 when reading an image of a check.
Confidential Miscellaneous Information in a Q & A Format The following Q & A will help you understand more about the printer. Question Answer What happens when an ink out occurs? The printer prints all data in the line being printed when the ink out signal is received; then it stops printing. With two ink cartridges (main color and sub color), how does the printer work if only one cartridge is empty? The printer stops printing.
