Installing a
Paper Roll in the
Printer
Before you can process transactions that require a receipt or record, you must
install paper in the printer.
The VX 520 Color D/E CTLS uses a roll of 40 mm-diameter, single-ply, thermal-
sensitive paper.
A pink out-of-paper indicator line appears on the edge of the paper before the end
of the roll. After this line appears, there is enough paper remaining on the roll to
conclude at least one transaction.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26AWG or larger UL Listed or CSA
Certified Telecommunication Line Cord.
CAUTION
Poor-quality paper can jam the printer and create excessive paper dust. To order
high-quality VeriFone paper, refer to Accessories and Documentation.
Store thermal paper in a dry, dark area. Handle thermal paper carefully: impact,
friction, temperature, humidity, and oils affect the color and storage
characteristics of the paper.
Never load a roll of paper with folds, wrinkles, tears, or holes at the edges.

TEMPLATE REV F
Transactions
Fail To Process
There are several reasons why the terminal may not be processing transactions.
Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
Check the Magnetic Card Reader
•Perform a test transaction using one or more different magnetic stripe cards to
ensure the problem is not a defective card.
•Ensure that you are swiping cards properly. With the card reader, the black
magnetic stripe on the card should face down and inward, toward the keypad
and must be inserted from the top of the terminal.
•Process a transaction manually, using the keypad instead of the card reader. If
the manual transaction works, the problem may be a defective card reader.
•If the manual transaction does not work, proceed to Check the Telephone
Line.
•Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
Check the Smart Card Reader
•Perform a test transaction using several different smart cards to ensure the
problem is not a defective card.
•Ensure that the card is inserted correctly and that the card is not removed
prematurely.
•Ensure the MSAM cards are properly inserted in the cardholders and that the
cardholders are properly secured (see Installing/Replacing MSAM Cards).
•If the manual transaction does not process, proceed to Check the Telephone
Line.
•Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
Check the Telephone Line
•Disconnect the telephone line from the terminal and connect it to a working
telephone to check for a dial tone. If there is no dial tone, replace the
telephone cable.
•If the problem appears to be with the telephone line, check with the party you
are trying to call to see if their system is operational. If they are not
experiencing difficulties with their line, contact the telephone company and
have your line checked.
•If the telephone line works, contact your local VeriFone representative for
assistance.
