Removing the Cover

Insert and turn the key clockwise to remove the cover.

Removing the Packing Material

Lift up the Printer Block (A) and remove the Packaging Spacer (B).

Amano Cincinnati, Inc. Introduction

Connecting the Battery

1. Connect the battery cable (the connector with the black and red

wires) into connector CN3.

2. Plug the AC power cord into a wall socket. The time and date of

12:00 am, midnight on January 1st will appear in the display with

a flashing colon.

Note: Turning the AC power on, i.e., plugging the AC power cord into

a wall socket, will cause the printer carriage to move up.

Note: When AC power is not connected properly, the colon will not

flash (see Error Messages).

Note: After connecting the unit to ACpower for the first time, allow it

to charge the batteries for 24 hours without printing. Failure to

do so may result in reduced battery life.

Note: To avoid damaging the power reserve battery, or draining it to

an unrecoverable level, keep the machine plugged into an AC

power source during normal operation. The power reserve

battery is used for limited power outages, not as a power

source during normal operations.

Wall Mounting

1. With the cover removed, the wall mount plate can be removed by

using your index finger as shown below to pry open the bottom

portion (see arrow 1). Then slide the wall mount plate down in the

direction of arrow 2.

2. Knock out the three holes in the mounting plate.

3. Mount the plate on the wall using three #10 screws or equivalent.

4. Align the PIX with the hooks on the mounting plate. Press the PIX

down and toward the wall until a "CLICK" is heard. Replace the

cover, lock it and remove the key. Your PIX-3000x is now

mounted.

Amano Cincinnati, Inc. Introduction

Your First Printout

Please verify the following before attempting to print:

1. Is all the packaging material removed from inside the machine?

2. Is the battery connected?

3. Is the cover securely on the machine?

4. Is the PIX plugged into an AC wall outlet?

Once you have verified these items, insert a sheet of paper to make

a test print.

As shipped from the factory, the PIX-3000x will print the following

format:

If this format is acceptable, the print style does not have to be

changed. If the print style has to be changed, please refer to

Chapter 2: Programming.

Print Media

Print Media is defined as the type of material you will be using in the

machine to time stamp (time cards, mail, etc.). To avoid damaging the

print head, it is recommended that you do not exceed a media

thickness of 0.3 mm (0.01"). The following are general specifications

for different media dimensions.

Time Card: Time card thickness less than or equal to 0.3 mm (0.01").

Small Ticket: Tickets, slips, receipts or other validation media should

be no smaller than 100 mm (4”) long x 60 mm (2.25") wide.

Larger Paper: When using standard paper sizes, such as 8.5" x 11",

make sure the paper is heavy enough to push the Paper Sensor. If

the weight of the paper (thickness) is too light, the paper will curl up

and tear off inside the PIX. This may result in jams or damage to the

PIX.

Carbon Paper: The PIX will print on both carbon and carbonless

paper. The imprint will print through up to six copies, depending on

the quality of the document used. Carbon and carbonless paper

deteriorates over time. This process is accelerated by humidity, high

temperatures and sunlight. For maximum print performance, use only

high grade, uncontaminated carbon or carbonless paper.
