Load or change the receipt paper

Caution: You must use qualiﬁed paper rolls with TPG printers. The list of qualiﬁed paper is in Chapter 5. Using

unqualiﬁed paper may void the warranty.

You will later use the same procedure to change the receipt paper as you will to load it during installation. The minor

difference is noted in the directions below.

If you are installing the printer using the wall mount kit, you may ﬁnd it easier to load the paper roll after installation.

1 Open the receipt cover by pushing up evenly on each side of the cover until it unsnaps (1).

2 Loading: Remove the test printout (2) and starter roll. Slide the supports off the roll (3).

Changing: Remove the used paper roll.

3 Tear a clean edge on the new receipt paper roll, making sure the tape has been completely removed.

4 Place the receipt paper into the paper compartment so it unrolls from the bottom (4). Leave a few inches of paper

sticking out of the printer.

5 While holding the paper in place, close the receipt cover (5). To test that the paper is loaded correctly, advance the

paper with the paper feed button.

Note: If the paper jams, make sure the roll is inserted correctly. Check the illustration above for proper orientation.

6 Tear the excess paper off against the blade in the cover (6).
