Chapter Two: System Installation

2.1 Installing the paper roll

Unwrap the paper roll then place the whole roll in the paper compartment with the thermal side facing outside. The thermal side is the glossy side of the paper.

2.2 power connection

PS-20 printer comes with 5V DC power supply. To avoid damage, please ONLY use the original power supply coming with the printer.

After plug in the power, turn on the printer by pressing the switch on the side of the printer.

2.3 Buttons and indication

There’re two buttons SEL & LF and two indication lights on the printer. If the printer is correctly powered, the red light is on. Vice versa. If the printer is online,

the green light is on. Vice versa. If the paper is not installed, the green light will be blinking.

Self-check:

When the printer is powered, press the SEL button to go offline. Press and hold LF then press the SEL key. Release both buttons then the printer will print its

self-testing sheet. Check the print-out see if it is readable.

Pause printing:

When the printer is printing, press SEL then release, the printer will pause printing. You can feed the paper and when you are ready, hit SEL again and the

printer will continue printing.

Feed paper:

When the printer is offline, press LF button to feed paper. Press again to stop feeding. Press SEL to go back online.

Chapter Three: Serial Interface

4.1 RS-232

PS-20 is using female DB-9 RS-232 connector. The

pin numbers are shown in 4-1

4-1

■The printer can be directly controlled by the computer serial port or microcontroller through

RS-232 port.

■ The baud rate, parity and handshaking can be set by the 6 DIP switches.

The factory DIP Switch default setting is: the baud rate: 9600 BPS, the parity : 8

none, handshake choose: X ON - XOFF. The default printer setting will be printed

on the self-checking sheet.

Input

RXD

Printer

Output

When use X-ON / X-OFF handshaking, the printer sends out X-ON / X-

OFF controlling codes.

CTS

Printer

Output

When the signal is on MARK status, it indicates that the printer is busy

and it cannot accept the data, When the signal is on SPACE status, it

indicates that the printer is ready to receive new data.

DSR

Printer

Output

The signal is on SPACE status, ready to receive new data.

GND

——

Signal ground.

DCD

Printer

Output

The same signal CTS.

When the signal connection is using asynchronous transfer formats:

Start bit

Data bits

Parity bit

Stop Bits 1

7 / 8

Starting and stop bits are 1 Bit. Data bit is 7 Bit or 8 Bit. Parity bits 1 Bit. When 7 bit is selected, only even parities are allowed. Check DIP Switch K5 and

K6 to set up. The factory default set is no parity, with K5, K6 = ON, ON.

⑴Use DIP switch K1 to K3 to select the baud rate;

⑵Use DIP switch K5, K6 to select the parity;

⑶Use DIP switch K4 to select the signal control or X-ON / X-OFF control handshake;

⑷When the data buffer has 32 Bytes or less, the signal line DCD (Pin 1) and CTS (Pin 8) send Mark Status. Otherwise send Space Status.

⑸In X - ON / X - OFF control, in the busy status, the printer sends X - OFF (13H) code. When in the ready status, it sends X - ON (11H) code.

⑹In signal control, thehost computer (or indicator) decides to send or not to send data based on the signal received through DCD or CTS.
