 Rev. 1.00 - 12 - SRP-350IIOBE 1-5 Installing or Replacing the Paper Roll  ※  NOTE Be sure to use paper rolls that meet the specifications. Do not use paper  rolls  that have the paper glued to the core because the printer cannot detect the paper end correctly.   1-5-1 Make sure that the printer is not receiving data; otherwise, data may be lost.  1-5-2 Open the paper roll cover by pressing the cover-open button.      ※  NOTE Do not open the print cover while the printer is operating. This may damage the printer.  1-5-3 Remove the used paper roll core if there is one.  1-5-4 Insert the paper roll as shown.
 Rev. 1.00 - 13 - SRP-350IIOBE 1-5-5 Be sure to note the correct direction that the paper comes off the roll.    1-5-6 Pull out a small amount of paper, as shown. Then close the cover.             ※  NOTE When closing the cover, press the center of printer cover firmly to prevent paper miss-loading.  1-5-7 Tear off the paper as shown.
 Rev. 1.00 - 14 - SRP-350IIOBE 1-6 Adjustments and Settings  The SRP-350IIOBE is set up at the factory to be appropriate for almost all users. It does, however, offer some settings for users with special requirements.  It has DIP switches that allow you to change communication settings, such as handshaking and parity check, as well as print density.  The SRP-350IIOBE also has a near-end sensor for the paper. This can give you a warning when the paper is almost out. If you find that there is not enough paper remaining on the roll when the near-end sensor is triggered, you can change the near-end sensor setting. Rotate the near end sensor tab at front or rear position. (See the below figure)      1-7 Using the Printer  Control Panel        ○  POWER The POWER light is on whenever the printer is on.  ○  ERROR This indicates an error.    ○  PAPER This light indicates the near end of the paper roll. Install a new paper roll and  the  printer  will  continue  printing. When the light  blinks, it indicates the  self-test  printing  standby  state  or  macro  execution  Standby  state when the macro execution command is used.  ○  FEED Press  the  FEED  button once to  advance paper  one line.  You  can  also hold down the FEED button to feed paper continuously.  Near end sensor tab
 Rev. 1.00 - 15 - SRP-350IIOBE 1-8 Connecting the Power Supply  ※  CAUTIONS When connecting or disconnecting the power supply from  the  printer, make sure that the power  supply  is  not  plugged  into  an  electrical  outlet.  Otherwise  you  may  damage  the power supply or the printer.  If  the  power  supply’s rated  voltage  and  your  outlet’s  voltage  do  not  match,  contact  your dealer  for  assistance.  Do  not  plug  in  the  power  cord.  Otherwise,  you  may  damage  the power supply or the printer.  1-8-1 Make sure that the printer’s power switch is turned off, and the power supply’s power cord is unplugged from the electrical outlet.  1-8-2 Check the label on the power supply to make sure that the voltage required by the power supply matches that of your electrical outlet.  1-8-3 Plug in the power supply’s cable as shown below. Notice that the flat side of the plug faces down.    ※  NOTE To  remove  the  DC  cable  connector,  make  sure  that  the  power  supply’s  power  cord  is unplugged; then grasp the connector at the arrow and pull it straight out.
 Rev. 1.00 - 16 - SRP-350IIOBE 2. Self Test  The self-test checks whether the printer has any problems. If the printer does not function properly, contact your dealer. The self-test checks the following;  2-1 Make sure paper roll has been installed properly.  2-2 Turn on the power while holding down the FEED button until it beep 3times.   The self-test begins.  2-3 The self-test prints the current printer status, which provides the control ROM version and the DIP switch setting.  2-4 After printing the current printer status, self-test printing will print the following,   and pause (The PAPER LED light blinks).     SELF-TEST PRINTING. PLEASE PRESS THE FEED BUTTON.   2-5 Press the FEED button to continue printing.   The printer prints a pattern using the built-in character set.  2-6 The self-test automatically ends and cuts the paper after printing the following.   *** COMPLETED ***  2-7 The printer is ready to receive data as soon as it completes the self-test.
 Rev. 1.00 - 17 - SRP-350IIOBE 3. Hexadecimal Dumping  This feature allows experienced users to see exactly what data is coming to the printer. This can be useful in finding software problems. When you turn on the hexadecimal dump function, the printer prints all commands and data in hexadecimal format along with a guide section to help you find specific commands.    To use the hexadecimal dump function, follow these steps.  3-1 After you make sure that the printer is off, open the cover.  3-2 Turn on the printer, while holding down the FEED button.  3-3 Close the cover, then the printer enters the hexadecimal dump mode.  3-4 Run any software  program that sends data to the printer. The printer will print all the codes it  receives in  a  two-column format. The  first  column  contains the  hexadecimal codes  and  the  second  column  gives  the  ASCII  characters  that  corresponds  to  the codes.  1B  21  00  1B  26  02  40  40  40  40  .  !  .  .  &  .  @  @  @  @ 02  0D  1B  44  0A  14  1E  28  28  28  .  .  .

 Rev. 1.00 - 19 - SRP-350IIOBE 5. Appendix  5-1 Cleaning Printer  Paper dust inside the printer may lower the print quality. In this case clean the printer as follows.  5-1-1 Open the printer cover and remove the paper if exists.  5-1-2 Clean the print head with a cotton swab moistened with alcohol solvent.  5-1-3 Clean the platen roller and paper end sensor with cotton swab moistened with water.  5-1-4 Insert a paper roll and close the printer cover.  The  remained  amount  of  paper  detected  by  paper  near  end  sensor  varies  with  the diameter of the paper core.  To adjust the remained amount, contact your dealer.   5-2 Printing speed  When the paper is about to run out, the printing speed may become slower while printing. Press the Push button, open and then close the cover to print at the normal speed until all the paper is used.   5-3 Using Wall Mount  Please disable the near end paper function by making dip switch 1-7 on when you use the printer in wall mount position where the near end paper function will not work well.
