1. DESIGN PRECAUTIONS
To maintain the initial level of performance of the printer and to prevent future problems
from occurring, observe the following precautions.
◆ If too much energy is applied to the thermal head, it may overheat and become
damaged. Always use the printer with the specified amount of energy.
◆ When turning the power on or off, always DISABLE (put in “Low” state) the
DST terminals.
◆ To prevent the thermal head from being damaged by static electricity:
◆ Keep the Vp power off when not printing to prevent the thermal head from becoming
electrically corroded.
◆ When turning the power on or off, perform the Vp and VDD simultaneously or in the
order of 1) and 2) as follows:
At power ON: 1) VDD (Logic) → 2) Vp
At power OFF: 1) Vp
→ 2) VDD (Logic)
◆ Always monitor the output of the platen position sensor and paper detector.
Incorrect activation of the thermal head may damage and reduce the longevity of
the thermal head and the platen.
Design the outer case so that the paper detector is not affected by light from
outside. Since a reflection type photo interrupter is used in the paper detector,
the detector may be affected by light from outside.
◆ Allow for movement of the FPC when designing the outer case because the FPC will
shift 2 to 4 mm from the thermal head moving. Also, design the outer case so that it
prevents the paper feed out from being caught in the platen.

It detects a temperature change by reading a Thermistor Resistance value built in
thermal Head. It is recommended to control energy and calibrate the Pulse width
into thermal Head based on the installation environmental temperature and a
temperature change of thermal Head. When it detects the temperature higher than
60℃, stop the printing process. Pulse per width is calculated the following formula.

3-10-4. Head History Control
1 Dot line is printed per each 2 steps of motor. A better print quality can be assured
by having longer Off-Time so that TPH may cool down enough.
In case of red box ○1 , it should fire T-On 1 and T-On 2 both to fire Line 1 because
Line 0 was not fired. Line 2 has to fire T-On 1 only and not T-On 2 while Line 1
was fired. In case of blue box ○2 , T-On 1 and T-On 2 both must be fired to fire Line
3 because Line 2 was not fired.
Data 1 for T-On 1 and Data 2 for T-On 2 must be transmitted to TPH before T-On 1
and T-On 2 become Strobe On.

3-12 Detecting Abnormal Temperatures of the Thermal Head
To protect the thermal head and to ensure personal safety, abnormal thermal head
temperatures must be detected by both hardware and software as follows:
■ Detecting abnormal temperatures by software
Design software that will deactivate the heat elements if the thermal head
thermistor (TM) detects a temperature 60°C or higher and reactivate the heat
elements when a temperature of 50°C or lower is detected. If the thermal head
continues to be activated at a temperature higher than 60°C, the life of the
thermal head may be shortened significantly.
■ Detecting abnormal temperatures by hardware
If the Control unit malfunctions, the software for detecting abnormal
temperatures may not function properly, resulting in overheating of the thermal
head.
Overheating of the thermal head may cause damage to the thermal head or injury.
Always use hardware in conjunction with software for detecting abnormal
temperatures to ensure personal safety. (If the Control unit malfunctions, it
may be impossible to prevent damage to the thermal head even if a detection of
abnormal temperature is detected by hardware.)
Using a window comparator circuit or similar detector, design hardware that
detects the following abnormal conditions:
1) Overheating of the thermal head (approximately 100°C or higher).
2) Faulty thermistor connection (the thermistor may be open or short-circuited).
If (1) and (2) are detected, immediately deactivate the heat elements.
Reactivate the heat elements after the temperature of the thermal head has
returned to normal.

5. PAPER DETECTOR
The printer has a built-in paper detector (reflection type photo interrupter) to detect
whether paper is present or not.
An external circuit should be designed so that it detects output from the paper
detector and does not activate the thermal head and motor when there is no paper.
Doing not so may cause damage to the thermal head or platen roller or shorten the
life of the head significantly. If the motor is drove when it is out-of paper, a load is
put on the reduction gear and the life of the gear may be shortened
