Test Points on the Main Circuit Board Unit

Power Supply Line Check
After a main circuit board unit failure, one basic method for diagnosing the cause of the problem
on the main circuit board unit is to check the power supply line. Use the following table to check
the power supply line. First, check step number 1, and proceed to the next step if that is not the
problem.

Presumed Cause of the Error

It is possible that the problem is prearcing of the F1 fuse. The fuse may
have pre-arced because of an
unusual input circuit.
Always replace the fuse after
removing the cause of the pre-arcing.
If you do not remove the cause of the
pre-arcing, and replace this fuse, the
problem may expand to
misoperation. Also, always use the
specified type of fuse when replacing.

It is possible that the problem is prearcing of the R3 fuse. The fuse may
have pre-arced because of a
problem in the logic power supply
circuit or because of a VCC overvoltage.
If pre-arcing of the R3 fuse happens,
do not repair the main circuit board
unit. The quality of several parts on the

It is possible that the problem is prearcing of the F2 fuse. The fuse may
have pre-arced because of a defect
in the 24V line circuit elements.
Presumed Cause of the Error
If pre-arcing of the F2 fuse happens,

do not repair the main circuit board
unit. The quality of several parts on the
circuit board is weakened by prearcing of the F2 fuse, and safe

Assembly and Disassembly

Before Assembly and Disassembly
Always observe the following precautions when disassembling and assembling the printer.
CAUTION:
Always remove the power supply unit from the printer before working. Power is flowing
in the internal circuit board even if you turn the printer off with the power supply switch.
You can damage the printer if you work with the power supply still attached.
Remove all peripheral equipment connected to the printer before starting your work.
Do not perform any work that is not described in this chapter. Doing so can result in
injuries or damage to the printer.
Do not touch the FPC or the FFC pins with your hands.
About this Chapter

Procedures
This chapter provides the procedures for assembling. Reverse them to disassemble the printer.
Assembly is organized into Assembling the Mechanism Assembly (M-U675), and
Assembling the TM-U675. Each section is further divided into Pre-assembly and
Assembly.
Do Pre-assembly steps first, and then do Assembly after you have assembled the parts into
units to some degree.

Movement of print head unit

When the carriage motor rotates the carriage motor gear in the direction shown by the white
arrow, the driving force is transmitted sequentially to the carriage drive pulley and carriage
transmission belt, moving the head carriage assembly, which is fixed to the carriage
transmission belt, in the direction indicated by the white arrow. (See Figure D-5.)

Printing operation
Wire movement when printing one dot
1. When an electrical pulse is applied to the drive coil, the steel core is excited, and the
operation plate is pulled in the direction indicated by black arrow. At this time, the dot wire
is pressed against the operation plate by the force of the wire return spring. The force of the
operation plate pushes the dot wire out towards the platen (in the direction indicated by
black arrow).
2. The dot wire prints a dot when it strikes the platen through the ink ribbon and paper.
Rev. B

3. When the electrical pulse to the drive coil ends, the dot wire and operation plate are
returned to the standby status by the spring force of the wire return spring and operation
plate spring. (See Figure D-6.)

Printing operation when printing one character

This section explains the printing operation for a 9 9 dot matrix.
Characters are printed by energizing the print solenoids at a timing corresponding to the head
carriage movement position, using the carriage motor phase change signal as a reference signal.
The print head unit moves approximately 0.339 mm with a one step rotation (7.5) of the
carriage motor.
To print the number "2," print solenoid numbers 2 and 9 are energized in sync with the carriage
motor phase change signal. Next, print solenoid number 8 is energized in sync with TnH,
delayed by a half dot time interval. The number "2" is printed by repeating this process.

Platen open/close operation
The platen adjustment screw attaches the platen to the platen lever. The platen opens and closes
to prepare for feeding a slip, check, or validation sheet. When the lever coil is energized while
the lever drive motor rotates, it releases the linkage of the lever ratchet wheel to the paper feed
trigger attraction plate, and the lever drive gear rotates the prescribed amount in the direction
shown by the arrow. This rotation is transmitted by the lever drive transmission gear, rotating
the platen lever open/close cam 180. The platen lever moves in the direction indicated by
arrow a around the platen lever shaft, and the platen and slip feed roller open. (See Figure D-8.)
To close the platen, the lever drive coil is energized again while the lever drive motor rotates,
turning the lever drive gear the prescribed amount in the direction of the arrow. This rotates the
platen lever open/close cam 180, and the platen lever is moved in the direction shown by arrow
b around the platen lever shaft by the slip retainer spring. The slip feed roller and slip hold
roller make contact at this time, closing the platen.

Home position detection mechanism
The home position detection mechanism is located at the left end of the head carriage assembly.
This mechanism keeps track of the head carriage assembly movement position. The initial
setting is made by sensing the detection plate at the rear of the head carriage assembly.
The home position detector consists of an LED and photo IC. When the head carriage assembly
is moved, the detection plate passes between the LED and photo IC. The photo IC output level
changes when the light rays are interrupted. This change in output level is used as a detection
signal for the head carriage movement position.

Carriage detection mechanism

The carriage detection mechanism uses a rotary encoder interlocked to the carriage motor gear
to detect abnormal carriage motor rotation.
This mechanism is comprised of the carriage drive transmission gear and carriage detector,
which are located on the carriage motor shaft.
The carriage detector consists of an LED and phototransistor.
The driving force generated by the carriage motor is transmitted to the carriage motor gear,
carriage drive pulley, carriage belt, carriage transmission pulley, and the carriage drive
transmission gear, which is located at an equal interval on the inside of the gear, where the
screening plate is located. When the carriage drive transmission gear is rotated by the driving
force of the carriage motor, the screening plate passes between the LED and phototransistor.
The output level of the phototransistor changes at this time, since the light rays are interrupted.
This output level is used as the detection signal for carriage motor rotation.

The mechanism is located near the right end of where paper is inserted to ensure it can
determine whether or not a slip has been inserted and for proper positioning.
The B.O.F. detector is comprised of an LED and phototransistor. When a paper slip is inserted,
the light rays between the LED and photo resistor are interrupted, resulting in a change in the
phototransistor output level.
This change in output level is used as a detection signal to determine whether or not a slip has
been inserted.

Roll paper end detector mechanism

The roll paper end detector mechanism detects the presence of roll paper. It is located behind
the sub paper feed roller in the roll paper feed path so that it can detect the insertion of paper
when semi-automatically loading roll paper.
The roll paper end detector includes an LED and a phototransistor. The reflection of light is
used to detect the presence of paper.
When there is paper in the feed path, or when you are performing semi-autoloading, LED light
is reflected when the roll paper is inserted. This changes the output level of the phototransistor.
The change in output level is detected and is used as the detection signal for the presence of roll

Roll paper near end detector mechanism
The roll paper near end detector mechanism is made up of the N.E. detector lever and a
microswitch. It is attached to the right side of the paper feed unit, and it detects the amount of
roll paper remaining.
The tip of the N.E. detector lever is pushed against the edge of the roll paper by a spring built
into the microswitch. Therefore, the N.E. detector lever touches the edge of the roll paper when
there is a substantial amount of roll paper remaining, which keeps the microswitch turned ON,
as shown in the following illustration. The tip of the N.E. detector lever moves in the direction
of the arrow as the amount of roll paper remaining becomes lower than the prescribed amount.
The tip of the N.E. detector, thus, moves toward the core of the roll paper center thereby turning
OFF the microswitch to generate a detection signal.

Roll Paper Feed Mechanism

This mechanism mainly includes the paper feed motor, J/S change assembly, roll paper feed

Roll paper insertion operation (semi-autoloading)

When the platen lever open/close cam is in the idle position, the sub paper feed rollers and sub
paper hold rollers in the paper feed unit are open. (See "Platen open/close operation" earlier in
this appendix.) When the leading edge of paper is manually inserted into the opening, the
paper end detector built into the paper feed unit detects its presence. The platen lever open/
close cam rotates and the sub paper feed roller and sub paper hold rollers close to grasp the
paper and the rotation of the paper feed motor starts the semi-autoloading.
As shown in Figure D-24, when idling, the platen lever open and close cam holds the platen
lever in the direction of arrow a and the paper guide lever in the direction of arrow c. The
auxiliary paper guide spring force holds the auxiliary paper guide in the direction of arrow e.
When roll paper is inserted and the paper end detector detects the edge of the paper, the lever
drive motor is started and the platen lever open and close guide operates. The platen lever
spring holds the platen lever in the direction of arrow b. The paper guide lever spring holds the
paper guide lever in the direction of arrow d while the paper feed motor drives and starts semi-

autoloading. The semi-autoloaded paper roll passes through the paper path past the platen
lever, and then passes to the front side of the platen to be guided to the auxiliary paper guide. It
is guided outside the paper feed unit after passing the area where the paper feed roller and
paper pressing roller are pressed together. The roll paper that has passed out of the paper feed
roller is directed up by the protrusions in center of assist paper guide, and the assist paper guide
is rotated in the direction of arrow f and is closed. (See Figure D-25.)
In this configuration, you cannot insert roll paper to the paper feed roller in slip mode.

sub paper feed roller is set to a paper feed amount that is slightly less than that amount. The
difference in feed amounts is built into the sub paper feed roller. (See Figure D-27.) The sub

Roll paper release operation

The roll paper release operation lets you remove pieces of roll paper that still remain when you
are replacing roll paper. You can use this when there are paper jams or when you are removing
pieces of paper.
The paper is released by operating the release lever beside the paper feed motor on top of the
paper feed unit. The end of the release lever is located very near the paper hold roller. When
you push the part of the lever labeled "PUSH" in the direction indicated by arrow b, the paper
hold roller on the paper hold roller shaft is moved in the direction indicated by arrow a,
releasing the connection with the paper feed roller, releasing any paper in between.

Slip Feed Mechanism

The slip feed mechanism is comprised of the following parts:
Form stopper
Sub slip feed lever
Sub slip feed roller
Sub slip hold roller
Slip feed roller
Slip hold roller
Paper feed motor and wheel
Positioning slip paper

The slip paper path is normally interrupted by the form stopper, located perpendicular to the
path, which is held in place by the form stopper spring. When a slip is inserted along the right
edge of the slip guide lower frame in the direction indicated by the arrow, the slip paper goes in
as far as the form stopper and is positioned. (See Figure D-34.)
When the paper feed motor rotates several times forward and reverse while energizing the J/S
change solenoid, the J/S change lever will switch the J/S change gear that had been engaged
with the roll paper feed gear so that it is engaged with the slip paper feed gear. (See Figure D35.)

When the T.O.F. detector and B.O.F. detector determine that a slip has been inserted, the lever
drive coil is energized while the lever drive motor is rotated. At this time, the linkage between
the paper feed trigger attraction plate and lever drive ratchet wheel is disconnected, the lever
drive shaft and lever drive cam rotate, and the sub slip feed lever moves in the direction
indicated by arrow a. (See Figure D-34.) This pushes up the sub slip feed roller, compressing the
sub slip hold roller. At the same time as this, the sub spring feed lever moves the form stopper
in the direction indicated by arrow b (See Figure D-34), completing preparations for feeding the
slip away from the form stopper slip path. (See Figures D-34, 36.)

Slip paper printing and paper feed operation

After the slip is positioned, printing can be performed. The paper feed motor drives the slip
feed roller upon the completion of printing of one line, feeding the paper the prescribed
distance. The slip paper can be fed forward or reverse by controlling the energizing signal of the
paper feed motor.
The slip feed mechanism gear assembly is comprised of the following parts:
Paper feed motor gear for paper feed motor
J/S change gear (J/S change solenoid engages this with the slip paper feed gear)
Slip transmission gear
Slip drive gear
The driving force of the paper feed motor is transmitted to the slip feed roller and slip hold roller
simultaneously via the gears, creating the force to feed the slip paper on the front and on the
back.
Rev. B
Confidential
When the slip paper is fed forward, the respective gears rotate in the directions indicated by
arrow a, arrow b, arrow c, arrow d, arrow e, and arrow f. This rotates the slip feed roller and slip
hold roller in the directions indicated by arrows g and h, feeding the slip paper in the direction
indicated by the arrow. When the slip paper is fed in the reverse direction, the operation is
performed in the opposite direction. (See Figure D-37.)
Validation Mechanism
Feeding validation paper
When you use validation paper, the force of the drive of the paper feed motor switches to the
slip paper feed gear using the J/S change mechanism.
The open/close operation (see "Platen open and close operation") moves the platen lever frame
in the direction of arrow a and the slip paper roller and platen are opened. Validation paper can
be inserted from the top of the printer mechanism in this state. When the trailing edge of
validation paper is detected, the detection signal is output. This signal is received, the lever
drive motor is started, and the platen lever moves in the direction of arrow b (in Figure D-8).
This causes the slip feed roller and the slip hold roller to grasp the validation paper. The platen
closes to ensure the appropriate platen gap, and printing is possible. When the printing of one
line of characters is completed, the paper feed motor is driven to rotate the slip feed roller to feed
the validation paper the prescribed amount in the upward direction.
Ribbon Feed Mechanism

The ribbon feed mechanism is comprised of the following parts. (See Figure D-38.)
Transmission gear
Ribbon drive gear
Ribbon intermediate gear
Ribbon take-up gear
Ribbon take-up shaft
The rotation of the carriage transmission pulley driven via the carriage transmission belt is used

Ribbon feed operation

When the carriage motor moves the head carriage assembly from the right side to the left side,
the carriage transmission pulley rotates in the direction indicated by arrow A in Figure D-39.
This driving force rotates the ribbon drive gear (planetary gear) in the direction indicated by
arrow B via the transmission gear and ribbon reduction gear. At this time, the ribbon drive plate
rotates in the direction indicated by arrow C around the ribbon reduction gear rotation shaft
until the ribbon drive gear meshes with the ribbon intermediate gear.
Meshing of these gears transmits the driving force of the ribbon drive gear to the ribbon take-up
gear via the ribbon intermediate gear, rotating the ribbon take-up shaft mounted at the top in the
direction shown by arrow D. (See Figure D-39.)
The ribbon is fed when the ribbon feed roller in the ribbon cassette meshes with this ribbon takeup shaft.
On the other hand, when the head carriage assembly moves from left to right, the carriage
transmission pulley rotates in the direction of arrow E, and the ribbon drive plate rotates in the
direction of arrow F around the ribbon reduction gear rotation shaft. Consequently, the ribbon
drive gear and ribbon intermediate gear no longer mesh, the ribbon take-up gear remains in
place, and the ribbon is not fed.
Rev. B
Confidential
The ribbon take-up gear has an internal one-way clutch, preventing it from rotating in the
direction indicated by arrow G and this, in turn, prevents ribbon slack. (See Figure D-39.)

MICR character reading, and printing on front
When using the MICR process, the force of the drive of the paper feed motor switches to the slip
paper feed gear using the J/S change mechanism. A check is inserted just like any other slip.
When a check is inserted along the right edge of the slip guide lower frame in the direction
indicated by the arrow in the figure below, it is fed up to the form stopper and positioned.
After the T.O.F. and B.O.F. detectors determine that a check has been inserted, the sub slip feed
roller and sub slip hold roller take hold of the check in an operation like that described for
positioning the slip paper. This prepares for movement of the form stopper in the direction
indicated by the arrow to feed the check. The MICR solenoid is then energized, moving the
MICR lever in the direction indicated by the arrow, and the MICR fixing mounted to the MICR
lever pushes the check against the MICR head.
Next, the paper feed motor rotates at the MICR reading speed in the same way as for slip paper
feed, transporting the check. When the MICR characters on the check pass over the MICR
magnet in front of the MICR unit, they are magnetized. The check is transported farther, and
when the characters pass through the MICR unit, they are read by the MICR head, shown in
Figure D-41.
In the event the MICR characters cannot be recognized during the MICR reading process, the
check is ejected out the rear (see Note 1).
Upon completion of MICR reading, the check is fed to the position corresponding to the format
for printing on the front of the check, and the head carriage assembly prints in the prescribed
format on the front of the check. After printing, the check is fed forward and ejected, completing
the operation. The slip feed roller rotates during the front printing process, feeding the check
forward in the same way as for a slip (see Note 2).

Reset Circuit
Stable operation of the CPU and GA requires a certain reset period immediately after power up.
All operations return to their initial status after the reset operation. The reset IC (U1) on this
printer monitors the logic power source (VCC, Standard output: +5V), and sets the reset signal
to LOW when the VCC is 4.2V or lower. The reset signal is restored from LOW to HIGH 50 ms
after the VCC exceeds 4.2V. The CPU and GA operate normally after reset.
The main specifications of the reset IC are shown below:

The host interface reset signal (DSR signal and pin 25 input signal) is connected through DSW
2-7 and 2-8. When the reset signal (LOW) is applied here, the printer is reset. In the reset status,
the CPU and GA are initialized, but the power remains on, and this status differs from when the
power is turned on again. It is necessary to keep this in mind. The reset circuit is shown below.

The SHEAD 1-9 signal lines (LOW active) are on the left side. These signals are directly driven
by the GA (directly connected to GA [U30]). Signals SHEAD 1-9 are input to the head drive
(QM3, 6, Q12: All NPN Darlington transistors) via the print driver (QM2, 4, 5, 7, Q13: All PNP
transistors). The driver is an NPN Darlington transistor. The driver is internally clamped at Vce
= 60V 10V by an internal Zener. The driver performs logical calculation at hgf>1000, providing
adequate flow for one solenoid. To utilize the regenerative current of the head solenoid
effectively, the regenerative current when the GND COMMON is turned off by D6, D7 is
channeled to the solenoid. With this printer, the head drive signal is controlled by the GA, and
at the same time, the COMMON (24V power source voltage side) is chopped, enabling efficient
head drive. The chopping circuit is shown below:

The HEADCOM1 common drive signal driven by GA (U30) drives the Q7 MOSFET. Since it is
necessary to drive Q7 at high speed (100 KHz or less), a speed-up circuit is added (Q47
periphery, pulls out electric gate load of Q7). The operating principle of the speed-up circuit is
not described here. The relationship of the HEADCOM1 signal and SHEAD signals are shown
below. The chopping cycle of the HEADCOM signal differs, depending on the voltage and
temperature, but is virtually the same as the waveform in the diagram.

Since the driver is of the constant-current type, the motor can be directly driven by setting the
peak current. The peak current is set as described below, using the logical level of terminal I0
and I1.
Table D-10 Logical level of terminal I0, I1 and output current
I0
I1
Output Current
VREF / (10 Rs)
VREF / (15 Rs)
VREF / (30 Rs)
At this time, VREF uses the DA output of the CPU (U3), and is set to an arbitrary value (0 - VCC)
by firmware. RS is the resistance value (0.68 ) of R78 and R101. Accordingly, the current to the
motor is calculated by the logic level of I0, I1 (judged by VREF1, 2 terminal voltage).

The drive signal to drive the phases is sent at the logical level of the PHASE1, 2 terminals. The
motor driver cannot operate unless signal 24VSW1 in the circuit diagram is set to HIGH
(controlled by the GA). When this signal is at a status other than HIGH, IC consumption is 0,
and no electricity goes to the motor.
Slip Paper Feed Motor Drive Circuit

The slip paper feed motor is two-phase stepping motor. The driving method is 1-2 phase
excitation during acceleration and deceleration, and constant-current drive is performed with
2-2 phase excitation. Therefore, a dedicated constant-current drive chopping driver (U17,
A2917SEB made by Alegrow) is used.

The circuit configuration is the same as the carriage motor driver, but the current setting is fixed,
and is changed between two levels by the output (PF_HOLD) of the GA (U30) port. The current
calculation procedure is described below.
Current = VREF/(10 Rs)
RS: 1
VREF: VCC or voltage obtained by voltage division ratio of R105 and R106.
As for the carriage motor drive circuit, the driver IC is operated by setting the 24VSW1 signal

Lever Motor Drive Circuit
This printer has a DC type lever motor for the purpose described below.
Adjustment of paper path changeover timing
Adjustment of shaft rotation position
Rotation of the lever motor starts changeover of the paper path and the platen open/close
operation. An NPN Darlington transistor is used for lever motor drive. Due to the structure of
the lever motor, a brake circuit is not required. The lever motor is driven using the ELV_M1
output signal from the GA.
The lever motor rotates when LEV_M1 = LOW. The motor cannot be driven when the VCCPWR is not being supplied. Furthermore, the Q41 NPN Darlington transistor incorporates a CE
Zener to perform kickback protection.

To control the MICR solenoid, it is necessary to apply two voltage levels (24V, 13V) in opposite
directions. Therefore, the MICR solenoid has a complicated circuit configuration. The MICR
solenoid is driven by MICR_SOL1 and MICR_SOL2 (output signals from the CPU).
MICR_SOL1 determines the direction in which electricity is sent, and MICR_SOL2 drives the
MICR solenoid. The logic is described in the following table.

MICR reader operating principles

MICR stands for magnetic ink character recognition. Unlike conventional printing ink,
magnetic ink includes iron powder or some other magnetic element, which gives the ink itself
magnetic properties.
Application of a magnetic field on one side of characters printed in magnetic ink on a check
causes the characters to be magnetized, as shown in the illustration below.

The output voltage is determined by the potential division of R82 and R85. In other words, the
circuit operates so that the crossover voltage of R82 and R85 is 1.26 V.
The input voltage of 24V for the power supply circuit is supplied to U11 through the R2 fuse
resistor (KOA RF73B2HTE0.51). R3 may burn out in the event of a malfunction in the U11 area.
R3 will also burn out in the event of excessive VCC voltage (approx. 7.5 V or more). This fuse
resistor cannot be replaced. Therefore, the circuit cannot be repaired by replacing the R3 in the
event it has burned out due to a circuit malfunction.

Rush Current Control Circuit

The rush current control circuit controls rush current when the power source is turned on. This
printer has large-capacity condensers to facilitate stable operation of mechanism drivers and
circuits. Therefore, an excess of rush current is generated when the power is turned on. This
circuit controls the rush current.
The CN18 external power source is connected to the CN19 switch. Q61 is Off when the switch is
turned On. Accordingly, the current that flows when the switch is turned on is supplied to the
respective parts via the power thermistor (TH1). The power thermistor controls the input
current with an in-line resistor (room temperature: 2.2 ). When the printer circuit begins to
operate, GA (U30) output OUTH is HIGH, and Q61 goes On. This bypasses TH1.
The OUTH signal is connected to the RESET signal internally by the GA, causing TH1 to be
bypassed when RESET is HIGH.
The power thermistor (TH1) has high resistance at room temperature, but the resistance value
decreases with heat generated by current flow. The power thermistor immediately begins to
heat up when 24V is turned on, but cools down when it is bypassed at the time the circuit begins
to operate, regaining its high resistance. Accordingly, it controls the rush current when the
power source is turned on again.

Malfunction Protective Circuit
This printer has the following three malfunction protection functions:
GA operation monitor
The CPU (U3) monitors GA clock oscillation. The CPU firmware reads a specific GA register at
an arbitrary time, and compares that value with the value previously read. If the results of the
comparison are different, the system is judged to be operating normally. The GA changes the
register value using clock oscillation. Therefore, if it is operating normally, the register value
continuously changes.
CPU operation monitor
CPU runaway causes a WDT (watch dog timer) overflow, resulting in output of LOW status
from the CPU WDT output terminal. This is connected to the GA TIMI input terminal, and
when the GA detects the LOW status for a certain time, it goes to the reset status and is not
restored.
Mechanism malfunction monitor
When the thermal head becomes abnormally hot, the GA TIMI input terminal goes LOW, and
the GA is reset and is not restored. The firmware judges this as a GA malfunction, and processes
it as an unrecoverable error.
GA TIMI input terminal also goes LOW when the impact head becomes abnormally hot, causing
the GA to go to the reset status, which will not be restored. The firmware judges this as a GA
malfunction, and processes it as an unrecoverable error.

Outline of Specifications
Features
This product was designed as a high-performance POS printer where one unit can handle
printing slips, validations, and journals (journals and receipts using pressure-sensitive paper)
and to be highly reliable, durable, and long-lasting. The main features are listed below.
Minimum line logic-seeking controls for high-speed printing.
When combined with MICR (factory option), MICR reading + check table printing
(single-pass high-speed processing) are possible.
Quiet printing (impact-type industry's top-class quiet printing).
Sheets can be inserted in two ways: when using validation paper, use the drop-in
method by inserting from the top; when using slip paper, insert from the front.
A mechanical form stopper stabilizes slip sheet insertion.
Page mode allows printing of any font.
Many types of check printing are possible.
Has highly operable roll paper, easy loading of roll paper, and one-touch T/U paper
take-up.
Using the packaged attachment provides the use of two types of paper width.
Two system drawer drive is available.
Commands allow you to select character sizes (7 x 9 fonts and 5 x 9 fonts).
Commands conform to ESC/POS.
Printer status is automatically transmitted using the installed ASB (automatic status
back) function.
Supports many I/F specifications (RS-232/bidirectional parallel).

Installing or Replacing the Paper Roll

You need to install a paper roll even if you are using only the slip or validation sections of the
printer.
Note:
Do not use paper rolls that have the paper glued or taped to the core because they might cause a paper jam.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on.
2. To prevent data loss make sure that the printer is not receiving data.

Reading MICR Characters On Personal Checks
To use the MICR function with personal checks (for printers with the factory-installed optional
MICR reader), follow the steps below:
CAUTION:
Do not insert checks with staples in them. This may cause paper jams, MICR reading
errors, and damage to the MICR head.
Note:
Be sure that the checks are flat, without curls, folds, or wrinkles.
1. Wait until the computer sends the FS a 0 command to the printer, causing it to enter the
MICR mode. The SLIP light blinks.
2. Turn the check over so that it is face up with the MICR characters on the right side. The MICR
characters must be next to the right edge of the paper inlet.

Figure I-16 Inserting a check
3. Insert the check straight into the paper inlet, using the right edge of the paper inlet as a
guide.
4. Insert the check as far as it will go. The printer will detect the check and start drawing it in.
5. When the printer starts drawing it in, let go of the check immediately. Otherwise, the check
may not be fed straight, and there could be a paper jam or a MICR reading error. The SLIP
light quits blinking but stays on.
6. When printing and MICR reading are finished, the printer ejects the check and the SLIP light
starts blinking again.
7. Remove the check by pulling it straight up; do not pull it at an angle. The SLIP light goes off.

Adjusting the Roll Paper Near End Detector

The paper near end detector detects when paper is almost gone by measuring the diameter of
the paper roll. The detector has five settings. The factory setting (#5) leaves the least paper on the
roll when the near-end sensor is triggered. If you want more paper on the roll when the sensor is
triggered, choose one of the other settings, using the procedure below.
Note:
Because of variations in paper roll cores, it is not possible for the detector to measure exactly the length of
paper left on the roll when the detector is triggered.
1. Open the paper roll cover, and remove the paper roll.
2. Loosen the adjusting screw with a coin, and carefully move the detecting lever down. At the
factory the lever is set at the highest position (#5). As you move the lever down through the
five positions, you increase the amount of paper left on the roll when the near-end sensor is
triggered.

3. When you have moved the lever where you want it, tighten the adjusting screw, and check
to be sure that the detecting lever moves freely.
4. Replace the paper roll.

Using the Control Panel
Most of the functions of this printer are governed by software, but you can monitor the printers
status by looking at the lights on the control panel, and for some procedures you will use the
buttons.
Control Panel
Figure I-18 Control panel
POWER
This light is on when the power is turned on.
ERROR
When this light is on but not blinking, it means that the printer is offline. Check to see if a cover
is open. When this light is blinking, there is an error. If you see this light blinking, turn off the
printer for a few seconds and then turn it back on. If the light is still blinking, see Chapter 1
Troubleshooting.
PAPER OUT
This light comes on when the printer is out or nearly out of roll paper. The printer has a paper
end detector, and it also has a near-end detector (which can be adjusted) to warn you that the
printer is nearly out of paper. See previous section if you want to adjust this detector.
This light blinks during the self-test printing standby state or macro execution standby state
(when the macro execution command is used).
SLIP
This light blinks when the printer is ready to receive slip paper. It stays on during printing on
slip paper and blinks again when slip paper should be removed.
Control Panel Buttons

The control panel has two paper buttons that you may have to use, although most paper
handling functions will be handled by your software.

FEED

Addendum 1
Maintenance of the TM-U675 Model with Paper Path

Spacers (Validation/Slip Model)
EPSON provides an optional model of the TM-U675 for customers, such as banking and
financial institutions, that want to use the slip and MICR functions of the printer without
loading roll paper. This model contains two paper path spacers and special firmware on the
main circuit board unit.
Information throughout the main part of this manual applies to the TM-U675 model that does
not use these paper path spacers. This addendum explains only the differences for the TM-U675
model that uses paper path spacers.
When performing maintenance on the TM-U675 model that supports paper path spacers, use
this addendum along with the main part of this manual.
For brevity, this addendum refers to the TM-U675 model that uses paper path spacers as the
PPSS model, and it refers to the TM-U675 model that does not use paper path spacers as the
PPSUS model.
Note that this model is called as the validation/slip model from sales point of view.
The contents of this addendum are shown below.

Items Requiring Setting
The slip T. O. F. detector assembly.
The slip B. O. F. detector assembly.
The paper ejection detector assembly.
The validation detector assembly.
The mechanism assembly.
The main circuit board unit.
CAUTION:
Work indoors to avoid direct sunlight when setting the values. Use normal fluorescent
lighting available in most rooms. You will not be able to make accurate setting if there is
natural light (sunlight) or man-made light sources (lamps, etc.) other than fluorescent
lighting.
Allow all the light from the fluorescent bulb to enter the printer when working. You will
not be able to make accurate adjustments if you allow a shadow to fall on the printer or
you turn off the fluorescent lighting while working.
1. Check that the paper path spacers are installed.
2. Install the paper path spacers if they are not installed. If roll paper is installed, remove it.
Note:
The paper path spacers must be installed correctly to set the threshold values of the detectors
accurately.
