Installing the Paper Roll
Installing the
Paper Roll
A fast, quiet thermal printer is built into the Vx670 terminal. Before you can
process transactions that require a receipt or record, you must install a roll of
thermal-sensitive paper in the printer.
The ITP uses a roll of single-ply, thermal-sensitive paper 57 millimeters (2.24
inches) wide and 38 millimeters in diameter. A pink out-of-paper indicator line
appears on the edge of the paper approximately 18 inches before the end of the
roll. After this line appears, there is enough paper remaining on the roll to
conclude at least one transaction.
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 in the
print area.
To Install a Paper Roll 1
Gently pull the latch located on the bottom of the terminal to unlock the paper

Using the Smart Battery
Using the Smart
Battery
NOTE
The Vx670 terminal uses an Li-ion smart battery (see Accessories and
Documentation for ordering information). The internal logic of the smart battery
prevents both overcharging and undercharging (a fault condition in which the
battery level goes well below the minimum acceptable charge and the battery
becomes unusable).
The Vx670 terminal will operate on battery power or on power pack power. The
smart battery charger in the terminal will be active whenever the power pack is
connected.
Smart Battery The following are features of the smart battery:
Features
• Two Li-ion cells
•
•
NOTE
A fuel gauge module that:
•
monitors state of charge (voltage and percentage of capacity),
•
communicates with the terminal (charge parameters and status),
•
determines full charge capacity (on charge cycle and uninterrupted
discharge cycle), and
•
automatically shuts down when cell voltage is extremely low.
A safety circuit that:
•
prevents cell damage from overcharge, over-discharge, or overheating,
and
•
activates when the battery is left in an unused terminal for extended
periods.
•
Lithium-ion batteries are not affected by shallow charging. Furthermore, when
the terminal has no external power source or smart battery, the coin cell
battery provides power to the security circuit.
•
Uninstalling the battery and unplugging the terminal power pack reduce the
life of the coin cell battery, which does not recharge and must be replaced if
drained.
•
Conserve battery power by turning the Vx670 terminal off when not in use. If
the terminal is not to be used for an extended period of time, keep the Lithiumion battery inserted in the terminal, and power up the terminal periodically to
check the battery charge. Do not let the battery charge fall below 10% for
extended periods of time as this may permanently diminish the battery
capacity. Recharge the battery by attaching the power cord to the terminal and
plugging the power pack into a wall outlet.

TERMINAL S ETUP
Charging the Smart Battery
The smart battery has a safety circuit to protect the Li-ion cells from overcharging
and over-discharging. If the battery is over-discharged, the safety circuit shuts
down the battery. The battery must then be recharged to restore operation.
NOTE
The Vx670 terminal automatically shuts off when the smart battery reaches the
critically low charge state. If this occurs, the smart battery must be recharged for a
minimum of 1/2 hour before it can power the terminal. It may take several
recharge attempts to reset the safety circuit when charging a smart battery that
has been discharged below this critical state.
Battery Life The Vx670 smart battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but
will eventually wear out. When operating times are noticeably shorter than usual,
it is time to buy a new battery (see Accessories and Documentation for ordering
information).
WARNING Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Li-ion batteries must be recycled
or disposed of properly. Do not dispose of Li-ion batteries in municipal
waste sites.

Troubleshooting Guidelines
The troubleshooting guidelines provided in the following section are included to
help you install and configure your Vx670 terminal successfully. Typical examples
of malfunction you may encounter while operating your Vx670 terminal and steps
you can take to resolve them are listed in this chapter.
If the problem persists even after performing the outlined guidelines or if the
problem is not described below, contact your local VeriFone representative for
assistance.
NOTE
The Vx670 terminal comes equipped with tamper-evident labels. The Vx670 unit
contains no user serviceable parts. Do not, under any circumstance, attempt to
disassemble the terminal. Perform only those adjustments or repairs specified in
this guide. For all other services, contact your local VeriFone service provider.
Service conducted by parties other than authorized VeriFone representatives may
void any warranty.
CAUTION Use only a VeriFone-supplied power pack. Using an incorrectly rated power
supply may damage the terminal or cause it not to work as specified. Before
troubleshooting, ensure that the power supply being used to power the terminal
matches the requirements specified on the bottom of the terminal. (See Chapter
3, Specifications, for detailed power supply specifications.) Obtain the
appropriately rated power supply before continuing with troubleshooting.

Not Dial Out • Check the telephone line connections.
•
Check that the telephone line is working by plugging it into a working
telephone and listening for a dial tone.
•
Replace the telephone cable that connects the terminal with a cable you know
is working correctly.
•
If the problem persists, contact your local VeriFone service provider.
Printer Does Not If the printer does not work properly:
Print • Make sure the battery is properly installed in the terminal. The printer will not
print if there is no battery in the terminal.
•
Check battery status or terminal power connection. The printer will not print if
there is an insufficient charge remaining in the battery to complete the print
operation.
•
Check if the printer is out of paper (slow red blinking light) and that the roll is
properly installed. Open the paper roll cover and install a new roll of printer
paper or ensure that the roll is feeding correctly. A solid red indicator light
indicates a printer error.
•
Verify that the printer door is properly latched.
•
If the problem persists, contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
Printer Paper If paper jams inside the printer:
Jam • Press the button at the bottom of the terminal to unlatch the paper roll cover,
then open the cover.
•
Remove the damaged paper from the paper roll and clear the feed
mechanism.

WARNING
If the problem persists, it may be due to poor paper quality. Install a new roll of
higher-quality paper.
Poor-quality paper may jam the printer. To order high-quality VeriFone paper,
refer to Accessories and Documentation.
Keypad Does If the keypad does not respond properly:
Not Respond • Check the terminal display. If it displays the wrong character or nothing at all
when you press a key, follow the steps outlined in Transactions Fail To
Process.
Transactions
Fail To Process
•
If pressing a function key does not perform the expected action, refer to the
user documentation for that application to ensure you are entering data
correctly.
•
If the problem persists, contact your local VeriFone representative.
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 Vx670 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 (see Figure 33).
•
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.
•
Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
•
If the manual transaction does not work, proceed to Check the Telephone
Line.
Check the Smart Card Reader

Ensure the MSAM cards are properly inserted in the cardholders and that the
cardholders are properly secured (see Installing/Replacing MSAM Cards).
•
Contact your VeriFone distributor or service provider.
•
If the manual transaction does not process, proceed to Check the Telephone
Line.
