Safety Instructions

Please read the operating instructions before first-time operation.

During installation:

Always disconnect the power.

Proper usage according to the operating instructions is required for pro-

duct warranty. If the user attempts to repair the product, all factory warran-

ties will be null and void. For technical questions, please contact the

GeBE Technical Support.

Description 3

Service-Friendly:

The GPT-4443 is designed for industrial appli-

cations. Service technicians appreciate easy

serviceability during hectic days.

The simple service allows the printer to be in-

stalled in places that are difficult to access, sin-

ce for paper roll exchange, the cassette is com-

pletely removeable from the printer.

Connections:

The serial RS232 (V.24) interface and the po-

wer supply are accessable at the back through

standard connectors.

The Right Power Supply:

The GPT-4443 is supplied with 10 - 36VDC. For

short periods of time, the supply voltage may

reach 8 - 40VDC.

• Near Paper-End Detector :

Signals the end of the paper supply (app. 10%).

Options

• real time clock with alarm register

• As an option, the printers can be equipped with a

Centronics interface.

Operation Service 4

Which thermal paper should be used ?

The printer mechanism is specified for a paper width of 82 mm +/- 0.5, with a weight of

60 g/sqm. Other paper widths may cause dysfunctions. GeBE offers paper rolls with a

42 mm diameter (app.25m) and a weight of 60g/sqm in its standard program . Other

diameters are available on request. For special applications, archivally safe, two-ply,

or water, grease, or alcohol resistant papers are available.

The GeBE team will gladly assist you in selecting a suitable thermal paper.

Which side of the thermal paper can be printed on ?

The printable side of the paper roll is always the side facing out. When in doubt, test

the paper with a fingernail: The thermosensitive side will blacken, when you run your

sharp fingernail over the paper applying pressure.

How is the paper roll inserted?

For easy service, unlock the front lid, and remove the printer cassette from the metal

housing. Then, pull out the rewinder disk on the side, and remove the remaining paper.

Unlock the paper roll axle on both sides, before pulling it out of the paper roll holder to-

ward the top (Avoid wiggling, since it might cause damage to the paper roll holder).

Push the paper roll axle inside the new paper roll, and insert it in the paper roll holder. -

Guide the paper around the rubber roll, below the cassette housing and back to the pa-

per rewinder. Push the printer mechanism cassette back into the housing until the

catch locks in place.

Operating Console:

An operating console is located on the front of the device with two standard keys and

LEDs.

FEED Key:

When the feed key is pressed, the printing of a line will be completed, before the paper is

transported. At that time, it is fed by only one blank line (24 dot lines, depending on the

selected font), followed by a small brake. If the key is still pressed afterwards, the printer

will feed line by line without interruption until the key is released. This function allows the

specific feeding by only one blank line by striking the key. After the paper feed, normal

printing is continued at the beginning of the next line.

The printer is equipped with a self test function. It is triggered, when the feed key is

pressed immediately after connecting the supply voltage.

ENTER Key:

Pressing the ENTER key initiates the printing of stored text file T1. Depending on its con-

tent, it can call another stored text file.

LED POWER:

The power LED is lit green, whenever the printer is ready for operation. It flashes, when

the paper supply is running low.

LED ERROR:

The error LED does not light up as long as no error occurs. It flashes in case of an error.

For its control, please refer to the table "Status Messages" below.

Operation Primo Bit Emulation 8

Primo Bit Emulation

Handshake:

Activates the DTR line, when less than 32 free bytes are available in the input buffer.

Since a TxD (printer data output) does not exist, neither a software handshake, nor a

transmission error message is possible.

Paper End:

Since an extra handshake line at the printer is not available, the TXD line is used. Whene-

ver there is no paper, the printer changes TXD to inactive: -12V. Operational = +12V

Primo Bit uses the following control commands:

CR (0D hex) Carriage Return Trigger Printing with Feed

SO (0E hex) Shift out Wide Format Print Off

Handshake:

The printer activates the feedback DTR, whenever paper is missing. At the same time,

X-OFF is transmitted on the TxD line. If less than 32 free bytes are available in the input

buffer, the DTR line is activated as well. X-OFF is sent on the TxD line.

and is processed as 80 cpl.

MP-3489 Emulation

Hardware Handshake:

The MP-3489 uses the DTR line for paper end and buffer full as hardware handshake.

Software handshake is supported.

When the printer is ready to receive, it will change DTR to LOW and transmit XON to the

host computer.

When the character buffer is filled except for 32 characters, the interface will change DTR

to HIGH and transmit XOFF to the host computer.

When the printer mechanism cassette is removed to exchange the paper roll, the interface

will set DTR to HIGH and maintain this status until the cassette is put back in its place.
