You can now connect an external printer. It must be a USB inkjet or laser printer that
supports PCL (printer control language), such as the following:
Printouts are always black and white.
When the external printer is selected in the Device Configuration screen and is powered
on and connected to the electrocardiograph, it prints the following:
• Auto ECG reports
• Spirometry reports (CP 200 spirometry option only)
• Device settings
• Audit trails (CP 200 only)
• Help pages
Rhythm ECGs always print to the internal printer.
To connect a printer, simply connect one end of a USB cable to the printer’s USB
connector, and connect the other end to the electrocardiograph’s USB connector.
No special software is required.

WARNING All signal input and output (I/O) connectors are intended for
connection of only devices complying with IEC 60601-1, or other IEC standards
(for example, IEC 60950), as appropriate to the device. Connecting additional
devices to the electrocardiograph might increase chassis or patient leakage
currents. To maintain operator and patient safety, consider the requirements of
IEC 60601-1-1. Measure the leakage currents to confirm that no electric shock
hazard exists. In the case of a USB printer, the printer (non-medical electrical
equipment) shall be situated outside the patient environment (reference IEC
60601-1-1). The printer used should be approved to the appropriate safety
standard for non-medical electrical equipment (IEC 60950, or its national variants),
and use of an isolation transformer is recommended. If there is a requirement for
the printer to be situated within the patient environment it is the responsibility of
the user to ensure that the system provides a level of safety in compliance with
IEC 60601-1 and 60601-1-1.
