Before use CAUTION (Observe precautions for safe use) Just after printing, the printer motor becomes hot and dangerous. Do not touch it directly. Set the operating power supply to 5Vdc±5%. An extremely high current flow may cause a fire. Precautions on Use • • • • • • • • Use the specified DC power supply (+5Vdc 3A). An extremely high or low voltage may cause a malfunction. Take care not to mix excessive noise in the power line. When wiring the power line, fully consider the line impedance.
Location l Use your printer in a horizontal to vertical place. l Using or storing your printer in the following places may cause a malfunction. Avoid dusty places or a places with excessive particulates. Avoid places whose temperature is 40°C or higher. Avoid places with much water or oil. particulates. Avoid places subjected to strong vibration. Avoid places whose temperature is below 0°C Avoid places where the relative humidity is 80% or greater.
Parts Designation Mounting screw for main body fitting Main body case Main body Panel Main body fitting PAPER LED (No sheet LED) Lock lever Paper cutter Printer rear side FEED switch . I/O connector Features: uTP-5820A/24A incorporates data memory and a character generator. It is an ultra-small thermal printer that prints data input from a computer or the other host systems via a thermal-sensitive printing method.
How to Use 1. Preparation 1-1. Unpacking After unpacking the product, ensure that the main body and accessories are all found. Main body (μTP-5820A or 24A) 1 Main body fitting 1 Main body fitting mounting screw 2 Thermal-sensitive paper (incorporated in the main body, P-58-15) 1 volume Instruction Manual 1 volume A variety of thermal-sensitive paper is available from us. 1-2 Part functions • FEED switch Pressing this switch consecutively feeds paper while it is pressed.
1-3. Outer dimensions Unit: mm Mount hole dimensions • Main body fitting Inner dimension:111.
2. Setting roll paper Roll paper can be set inside the main body. Pull the main body out from the front surface and set roll paper. When setting roll paper with the power ON, be sure to use the pull-out knob to draw the board. Because a small amount of current is flowing in it, do not touch the board directly. Caution (1) While pushing the lock levers on both sides of the panel, remove the panel.
(3) Pull out roll paper to this side and turn on the power supply. While pressing the FEED switch, insert the tip of roll paper with it straight so that it can be set horizontally with the wall surface of the sheet insertion slot. Note: If paper is bent, it may cause jams. If roll paper is not engaged with the roller, no paper is fed. Insert paper deep enough to reach the roller. Continuously press the FEED switch until roll paper comes out from the printer head section.
3. Functions 3-1. Test printing Turning on the power with the FEED switch pressed will result in test printing beginning after feeding paper by one line without printing. All characters are printed once, and then 10 lines of a zigzag pattern (0FEH) patterns are printed. Test printing sample Paper feeding direction μTP-5820A (Correct standing printng) Note: The correct and reverse standing printing switch can be used for test printing in a positionally reversed position. 3-2. Printing mode 3-2-1.
3-2-2 Setting correct standing printing and reversed standing printing After turning power ON during initialization, the printer checks the correct and reverse standing printing switch on the left side of the circuit board to set correct or reversed standing printing. Note: When changing the setting, enter the reset or turn OFF the power supply once. Neglecting to do this does not change the setting even by changing the switch.

LF [Name] [Code]: [Function]: [Operation]: Printing-paper feeding <0A> H or <10>D Prints data in the printer buffer and feeds paper. When no data is found in the printer buffer, paper is fed only. CR [Name] [Code] [Function] [Operation] Printing/paper feeding <0D>H or <13>D Prints data in the printer buffer and feeds paper. When data preceding is not found, nothing is done, When data + + , prints data + , and is ignored.

ESC +"c" [Name] [Code] [Function] Special character specification <1B>H + <634>H or <27>D + <99>D F9H to FDH in the character code table are changed as shown in the table below. [Operation] This is a toggle operation. Executing ESC + "c" again resumes the original state. However, this change is performed every one line. In one line, "市" and "Σ”, or "区" and "μ"、etc. cannot be used. It is not influenced by the CAN code.

Maintenance CAUTION When holding the printer, take the fullest care while handling it. When the printer surface is contaminated, wipe off the contaminant with a dry soft cloth. If the contamination is severe, immerse a soft cloth in water containing a small amount of a neutral detergent. Wry the water out of the cloth well and wipe the printer surface with it. Then, wipe the surface with a dry cloth. Cautions: • • Do not use a volatile chemical agent such as thinner, benzene, etc.
