Printer Components: Front Cover

Components Description

Front Cover

Opens to allow access to the Ribbon Cartridge. (Note: This cover must
be closed in order for the Printer to begin printing.)

Printhead

The component of the Printer that actually does the printing. (Note: This
component is fragile and must not be bumped or touched with anything
other than a cleaning swab.)

Cancel button The Cancel button

turns the Printer ON and OFF. (Note: It also

serves to cancel the current print job and reset the Printer for the next
print job.)

If a card is left within the Printer after a print job is canceled, it will
automatically be ejected when the Printer is turned back ON.

Pause button The Pause button is used to pause the Printer during normal operation

and also to resume operation after an error condition is cleared. (Note:
In general, as the icon above this button indicates, errors are related to
either the Ribbon or the cards. If an error occurs, the Pause LED will
flash.)

as needed.)
