2.2 Paper Installation
2.2.1 Paper Loading
POS891 adopts 79.5mm±0.5mm width thermal paper roll.
Steps of Loading Thermal Paper are as below:
Hold down the upper cover button on the left side, open the movable upper cover, draw a certain length of the paper roll, put the paper end on the print head, close the upper cover and press it downwards lightly.

Caution!

1. Pay attention to the direction of loading paper, make the printing surface face to the print head.
2. Please don’t feed or draw the paper forwards or backwards with hands.
3. Keep clean of the print head, avoid to influence the printing quality.b

2.2.2 Solution to Paper Jam
If cutter jam, turn off the power, and turn on again, the cutter will be back to original position. If paper jam, open the paper strage cover, and take out the paper. If thecutter can not be back to the original position, open the cover of it, and turn the white plastic gear by the direction suggestive on the cutter by hand to make the cutter be back to the original position.
If cutter jam, but hope no loss of data in printer, don’t turn off the power. Get the cutter back to the original position by the above mentioned method by hand. Then open the paper cover and take out the paper, close the paper cover. The printer will recover automatically from Cutting Error.

Fig.2-6 Definition of power socket and pin
2.4 Buzzer, Buttons and Indicators
There is one button and one inner buzzers and three indicators on POS891 printer. 【FEED 】is paper feeding button, the function of its enabling or disabling the button on/off can be set by print command, when the button is enabled, press 【FEED 】button, then the paper presenting driver starts up and paper fed into the printer; release【FEED】 button, paper feeding stops.
The buzzer indicates the error status type, which can be set to enabling error alarm or disabling by parameter setting. Error status type is the same as error indicator. The green POWER indicator is the power indicator. The POWER indicator lights, it indicate that the printer is turned on.
The red indicator is the paper status indicator. The indicator light indicates that the printer is out of paper.
Red/Blue indicator is ERROR/ALARM indicator, the red indicator is dark when printer work normally; and alarm abnormal status of printer while it flashes. When it is on for a long time, it means paper case opened in the printing process. The blue indicator flashes reminds that printer has received document.
When the document received indicator flash, the buzzer rings for three times, it reminds that printer has received document.
When the error indicator flashes and the buzzer rings, it means there is an error in the printer.
According to the different flicker type, the different error types are as below:

1. Non-recoverable error, the times of indicator flickering and buzzer sounding mean the error type, then persistent lighting.
2. Recoverable error, the times of indicator flickering and buzzer sounding mean the error type, then persistent indicator-off.
3. Auto-recoverable error, the indicator flickers and the buzzer sounds persistently.
4. Paper out, PAPER OUT indicator lights and the buzzer sounds persistently. When the paper case cover is open, whether the paper is out or not will not be tested, but just testing whether there is paper in printer.

The details are as below:
Non-recoverable error, the indicator flickers several times, then persistent lighting. The times of flickering means the error type,

Non-recoverable
error| LED Flikers once:Intemal memory reading and writing error|
LED Flikers twice:over-voltage|
LED Flikers three times:under-voltage|
LED Flikers four times: CPU execution error(wrongaddress)|
LED Flikers five times: UIB error|
LED Flikers six times: FLASH writing error|
LED Flikers seven times: parameter writing error|
LED Flikers eight times:
Temperature testing circuit error|

Recoverable error, indicator flickers constantly, then persistent off for one period.

Auto-recoverable error, indicator flickers constantly, including printing head over-heat error and upper case cover opening error during printing.

2.5 Power on status
Paper cover close when power off. Press the power button, the error indicator and paper out indicator flash twice alternately and out, then printer will be on the normal working mode.
2.6 Self-test
The self-test will check the condition of printer, if the printer prints out the self-test receipt correctly, it means the printer works normally, except interface with host.
Otherwise it needs to repair.
The self-test will print out the name of manufacturer, printer type, software version, interface type and printer defaulted parameter, 96 characters in ASCII and defaulted
Code page content(the language is English) or the name of Chinese characters library(if the language is Chinese) and Bar code type.
Way of self-test: hold down 【FEED 】button and turn on the power, self-test begins automatically at this moment.Different model of the printer have a little different parameters on self-test.SP-POS891US model printer self-test as Fig.2-7 shows
2.7 Hexadecimal Printing
Turn on the printer according to the step below, it will enter the mode of Hexadecimal Printing

1. Open the cover;
2. Hold down【FEED】button,and connect with power; wait for the alarm and close the paper cover.
3. The printer will print out 3 lines as below:
   Hexadecimal Dump
   To terminate hexadecimal dump, Press FEED button three times.
   This means the printer has entered hexadecimal printing mode, and under this mode, all of the input will be printed out as hexadecimal number, feed one line with single-click of “FEED” button, after 3 times, it will print out “ Completed ”, and exit hexadecimal printing mode.

2.8 Parameter Setting
There are two ways to set printer parameters:

1. Use the setting tool on the PC side for setting.
2. Set by the button, the specific operation method is as follows.
   When printer power is off, open paper case cover firstly. Hold the【FEED】button, then switch on the printer and release the【FEED】when the status indicator and paper-out indicator flash alternately. Then press the 【FEED】twice and close the paper cover, printer enter the setting mode and print out the first set parameter and its default value. The details method of setting parameter can refer to Appendix A.
   Steps for exiting of parameter setup:
   Open paper case cover and press the【FEED】 button; then close paper case cover and release the 【FEED】 button. The printer will save the setup of parameters, exit setting mode and enter the normal working mode.
   The data will not be saved if turn off the printer directly.
   Note：SP-POS891USd/SP-POS891Udn not support button settings .

2.9 Enter the program upgrade mode
When printer is power off,open paper case cover. Hold the【FEED】button, then switch on the printer and release the【FEED】when the status indicator and paper-out indicator flash alternately. Then press the 【FEED】for five times ( RS232 and USB interface support, Ethernet adopts the web page mode to upgrade directly) and close
the paper cover, printer enter the program upgrade mode. At this time, the status indicator flash once a second.
Quick enter method:
Open the paper case cover firstly when printer is power off. Hold the 【FEED】button and switch on the printer, then release the 【FEED】button quickly, then printer enter the program upgrade mode. At this time, the status indicator flash once a second.
Notice:

1. When printer enter the program upgrade mode, the paper-out indicator flash means the interface can’t be upgraded.
2. SP-POS891USd only supports USB interface upgrade mode.

Appendix A

This appendix is the method to set the printer parameter according to button operation.
Setting introduction: Press 【Paper cover 】button to choose setting,when press it once , the set become the next one and it will print the present set value; use【FEED】 button to set the set value, when press it once , the set become the next one and it will print the present set value.
