PLU KEYBOARD
(
hardware
option
)
It
has
130
keys,
each
of
which
corresponds
to
a
PLU
code.
By
simply
depressing
a
key,
the
*'!PLU
Code
i[PLU]"
entry
sequence
is
made.
Thus
it
simplifies
PLU
operations
and
saves
time.
The
PLU
Keyboard
will
be
connected
to
the
ECR
with
a
cable
and
may
be
placed
on
the
check-out
counter
table
near
the ECR.
As
an
additional
function,
the
PLU
Keyboard
may
be
used
to
entei^alpha/numeric
characters
just
as
on
the
ordinary
typewriter
keyboard,
instead
of
entering
3-
or 4-digit character code on the ECR, in various programming operations.

flickering
will
be

If
any
printing
has
been
under
way
and

due
to
the

receipt
roll
is
coming
near
the

to
replace the old paper roll with a new one.

roll
comes
near
the
end
(or
the

set
properly),
no
key
operation
(except

the
display
flickering
will
be
cleared
and
normal
key-in
operations
will
be
accepted.
If
any
printing
has
been
suspended,
it
will
continue printing.
(4)
If
this
detector
sensed
a
paper
near-end
condition
during
printing,
the printer will stop after the current line printing is completed.
(5)
The
[RF]
and
[JF]
keys
are
operative
regardless
of
the
detector
ON/OFF condition.
(6)
If
the
[C]
key
is
depressed
in
the
paper
near-end
condition,
it
will
be
ignored.
The
[C]
key
depression
will
be
effective
to
clear
the display flickering only after the new paper roll is set.
