[. . . ] The openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug of other similar surface. This product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heater. This product should not be placed in an built-in installation unless proper ventilation is provided. This product should be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. [. . . ] Remove the paper from the paper passage as described in "4. 5 Eliminating the Paper Jam". The auto cutter initialization begins and the cutter returns to its home position. If the cutter does not return to its home position after the power has been turned on, do the following. Turn off the power, and return the auto cutter blade to its home position by turning the emergency knob of the auto cutter in the direction indicated by the arrow. With tweezers or similar, totally remove remaining paper from the cutter blade area. Emergency Knob 4. 7 FEED Switch Function Press the feed switch to feed the paper, cut it, and output the cut portion. 4. 8 Paper End Function If the printing paper runs out, the parallel interface will output BUSY, FAULT, and PE to the host, and the serial interface will output DTR to stop printing, respectively. If some data are still remaining in the buffer, printing will be resumed after replacing the paper. Replace the paper according to "4. 3 Inserting the Paper. " After replacing the paper, cancel BUSY (DTR), FAULT, and PE outputs. For details, see "4. 10 Near Paper End Function.

Connector for PHU CN5 4. 10 Paper Near End Function (When Using the PHU) If the paper is running out, the PNE sensor informs the host computer that the paper is running out. You can adjust the printable amount left after PNE has been detected, up to about50 of paper roll. 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 Signal Name TWISTED PAIR GND RESET FAULT FRAME GND 27 CITIZEN C2201-PD User's Manual 6. 3 6. 3. 1 Input and Output Signals Input and Output Signals (1) Input signals to the printer · DATA · STROBE · RESET · ACK · BUSY · FAULT · PE : 8-bit parallel signal (Active: "High") : Strobe signal to read the 8-bit data (Active: "Low") : Signal to reset the entire printer (Active: "Low"); 1 ms or more (2) Output signals from the printer : 8-bit data request signal.
