INTRODUCTION
DESCRIPTION
The Star Receipt Printer is a compact, multi-purpose dot-matrix printer that is used in GASBOY
CFN and Series 1000 Card Systems. This optional printer enables you to print receipts for fueling
transactions right at your card reader.
The printer is housed within the pedestal of your card reader. A printer access door is located on
the side of the pedestal. Inside, the printer is mounted on a sliding drawer that enables you to
easily slide it out for servicing or maintenance and then replace it. A receipt door on the front of
the pedestal provides customer access to receipts. Indicator lamps, on the pedestal above the
receipt door, indicate PAPER LOW or PAPER OUT conditions.
Figure 1-1 highlights the location and features of a card reader with a receipt printer. The
remainder of this manual describes the printer, its internal switches and settings, and how to
maintain it.

SWITCHES AND SETTINGS
PRINTER STATUS BOARD
The printer status board (Figure 2-1) is attached to the
inside of the printer access door (See Figure 1-1) This
location provides the site attendant easy access to the
switches and indicator lamps needed to perform paper
loading, self-tests, and simple troubleshooting.

STATUS BOARD SWITCHES
Table 2-1 summarizes switches and results for the printer status board.
Table 2-1. Status Board Switches
Switch Function
SW2 SELF-TEST
Switching SW2 to the left starts a self-test of the printer. It will print a barber-pole pattern
of all the characters that may be printed on a receipt.
Switching SW2 to the right stops the printing and cuts the paper.
A short self-test should be performed whenever the paper or ribbon is changed.
SW3 PAPER FEED
Pressing SW3 causes a continuous paper feed. This is used while loading new paper.
SW4 ON LINE
Pushing this switch alternately puts the printer in the online or offline mode. The
printer must always be online (green lamp on) to print receipts or do a self-test.

MAINTENANCE
ACCESSING THE PRINTER FOR MAINTENANCE OR SERVICE
Before beginning any of the following maintenance procedures, you must first turn off all power to
the unit, then pull the printer out to a serviceable position. Follow these steps:
1. Open the printer access door and loosen the hex head screw.
2. Pivot the printer assembly to the right in order to clear the paper chute.
3. Pull the entire printer slide assembly toward you.
4. Perform any required maintenance or service. Reverse this procedure to return the printer to
normal operation.
ORDERING NEW PAPER OR RIBBON
When replacing paper or ribbon, use only GASBOY-supplied parts. Failure to do so will void the
GASBOY warranty.
• C08946 Paper, #RF-4, 5-5, Low Bulk - Star
• C08941 Ribbon, #SF-01P, Purple - Star
It is recommended, in most cases, that the ribbon be replaced every 4000-5000 receipts or 2 to 3
rolls of paper to ensure acceptable print quality. Environmental conditions, such as temperature
and humidity, may affect the life of the ribbon.
