Chapter 1 — Using the Printer
Learning About the Printer Models
The 6822 printer is used in the route accounting industry to produce
high-quality customer invoices, receipts, load reports, transfers, and
other documents. A unique “sleep” feature saves energy when the printer
is not printing, eliminating the need for an ON/OFF switch. Data input is
normally provided by hand-held or mobile computers.
The 6822 printer is available in the following models:
•
Fixed Mount Printer
The fixed mount printer is mounted in motor vehicles or used in a
settlement room. The terminal holder may be mounted on the printer
or a remote dock can connect to the side of the printer. A deep paper
tray, which holds up to 200 3-ply forms (up to 5 cm or 2 in of paper)
is located under the printer mechanism.
• Portable Printer
The portable printer has a handle so that you can carry it. An optional
internal battery permits operation without the use of an external power
source. The terminal holder is an integral part of this printer. A shallow
paper tray, which holds up to 50 3-ply forms (up to 2.5 cm or 1.0 in of
paper) is located under the printer mechanism.
Note: The printer models are shown on page 8.
The discharge of electrostatic energy accumulated on the
human body, clothing, or other surfaces can damage or
destroy the printhead or electronic components used in this
printer. Avoid touching the electrical connectors while
unpacking or setting up your printer.

Chapter 1 — Using the Printer
Understanding the Power Supply Options
The following power supply options are available for the 6822s.
Using the Internal Battery
The internal battery (P/N 317-075-001) allows the portable printer and
some fixed mount printers to operate independently of other power
sources.
The 6822 discharges the internal battery even when the
printer is not is use. Over time, the internal battery can
discharge to the point where the battery is not recoverable.
Plug the printer into an external charge source or
disconnect the battery when you store the printer for any
length of time.
A total discharge of the battery is most likely to occur when the battery is
new and the battery chemical reactions are not fully formed, or the
battery has had only one charge cycle.
Connecting to a Vehicle Power Supply
You will need to order a printer installation kit to install the 6822 printer
in a vehicle. The following kits are available:
•
P/N 203-242-101 (fixed mount printers)
•
P/N 203-242-102 (portable printers).
The installation kits contain all of the hardware (nuts, bolts, washers, a
terminal ring, and a fuse link) for connecting the battery cable directly to
the vehicle battery. These kits also contain adjustable wire clamps to
secure the cable in place.
Note: The 6820 printer and associated electrical wiring should
be installed under the supervision of properly trained and
qualified personnel.
See the 6820 Printer Installation Instructions (P/N 931-052-001) to
learn how to connect the printer to a vehicle power supply.
6822 Series 80-Column Printer User’s Manual
Chapter 1 — Using the Printer
Connecting to a DC Power Source
Each printer has a dc power jack that connects the printer to a power
source, such as the vehicle battery or an external power supply.
Each printer communicates with a mobile computer through the mobile
computer socket (in terminal holder, remote terminal holder, or vehicle
dock).
Fixed Mount Printer
The dc power connector is on the bottom rear of the printer behind the
printer terminal holder. The data communications socket is in either the
printer terminal holder or a separate vehicle dock.
Portable Printer
The dc power connector is on the side of the printer beneath the printer
terminal holder. The data communications socket is either in the printer
terminal holder or a separate vehicle dock.

Chapter 2 — Installing the Printer
Installing the Internal Battery
The optional internal battery is primarily for portable printers. The
battery can go in some fixed mount printers using a cable and a factoryinstalled adapter.
The printer battery recharges automatically when the printer is
connected to an external power source. For most installations, the
external power source is passed through the printer to the mobile
computer. The printer battery does not provide charge to the computer.

Adjusting the Printhead Gap
The head gap adjuster is near the printer mechanism on the side opposite
the green thumb wheel. The printhead adjuster has five notches between
the printhead and the platen for different paper thicknesses.
Verify the thickness of the paper loaded into the printer.
To adjust the printhead gap
•
If you are using single-sheet forms, set the head gap adjuster to the
third notch away from the paper.
•
If you are using multiple-sheet forms (2-ply or 3-ply), set the head
gap adjuster to the fourth notch away from the paper.
•
If you experience frequent head jams, set the head gap adjuster to the
fifth notch away from the paper. This may stop the head jams.
•
If the 2-ply and 3-ply paper have light printing, setting the gap
adjuster to a closer setting will darken the print.

Cleaning the Printer Case
Periodic cleaning helps maintain the appearance and reliability of the
printer. When cleaning the printer, inspect both the outside and the inside
for signs of damage or wear.
Glass cleaners containing ammonia will cause permanent
damage to the printer cover.
Do not use abrasives or solvents (acetone, ketone, toluene,
or xylene) to clean any part of the printer or permanent
damage to the printer will occur.
Note: MICRO-CLEAN II is the only cleaner recommended for
the printer case. Other cleaners can damage the printer case.
Note: GUIDE SHAFT CLEANER is recommended for
cleaning your 80-column printer guide shafts. Cleaning the
printer guide shaft can reduce the number of head jams caused
by dirt and buildup.
Note: Both cleaners are sold separately.
Cleaning the Outside of the Case
Do not pour liquid cleaners directly on the printer case. Instead, dampen
a soft, lint-free cloth with a quality cleaner and clean the exterior
surfaces with this cloth. Do not use solvent solutions. Inspect the DC
power jack, all cables, and the remote terminal holder or vehicle dock for
damage.
