7). Power-saving mode and manual waking
For saving power, if cannot receive any printing info within 30 seconds, then machine turn to the sleeping status automatically, when need to keep printing, just press the power button [pic].
4. Product maintenance:
1). suggest using original power supply.
2). If you use your own power, should meet the following requirements:
Output voltage: ±5V; Current: ≥500mA, standard USB output ;
3). Use the thermal paper which meets the standard level from supplier, otherwise it may affect the printing quality and the printer head life, even damage the thermal printer head.
Attention: minimum value of both density and inside diameter on paper roll must meet the specify tolerance, otherwise the paper may get unsmooth work and affect the normal operation of printer.
4). Do not get the paper scrap or other attaching crops inside the cutting edge or on the machine core by hard stuffs (such as tweezers, blades etc) at anytime, for avoiding the permanent damage to blades and machine core.
5). After having finished the printing, don’t touch the machine core or surface of motor when open the blades, avoiding to get high-temperature burns from the metal surface.
6). Printer head and rubber stick may get some paper scrap or other attaching crops after some period of working, you should make regular clean, following the steps:
a. power off the printer, put the blades away printer head in a maximum distance;
b. push the rod of machine core towards front till a maximum place;
c. blow away the paper scraps and other attaching crops which on the rubber stick and inside the machine core by air bag;
d. rub the whole heating components on ceramic substrate with light wet alcohol cotton balls.(please be care that do not make alcohol drop while rubbing, do not use hard stuff such as tweezers to grab cotton balls, avoiding the damage to chips.)
e. after have finished the clean, please wait till the alcohol been dry, then pull back the rod.

k=n1+256×n2(m=0,1)
k=(n1+256×n2)×3(m=32,23)
1. Horizontal direction point is n1+256×n2
2. If point value over 1 line, that part over the maximum point value will be ignored (that is about the point graphic way, detailed is show in the following table)
