Beep Indicator Number of Beeps One Two Three Indicates Printer has come out of sleep mode Printer is out of paper Battery is low One long beep No program in printer, only boot code Determining Current Battery Power To determine the current charge on the battery pack, print out a self-test by pressing and holding the red self-test button for four seconds. If the battery is good, you will see the abbreviation for the word GOOD next to the Battery voltage print out. This printer has a built in low battery detector. When the print-
ers battery voltage is low, the printer beeps three times, indicat-
ing a Low Battery Warning. This only happens if the printer is awake. PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 5 Paper Loading Out of Paper The PW40 Printer sounds two quick beeps when it runs out of paper. If the printer is out of paper, the printer suspends opera-
tion until paper is present and the lever is down. The printer continues to communicate with the mobile computer as long as it does not time out. Once the printer restarts, it finishes the rest of the print job from where it left off. Removing Paper Core from your PW40 Printer 1 Unsnap the latch and lift up the cover. 2 Wrap your index finger around the empty paper core and pull up. The paper rod will snap out. 3 Remove the empty paper core and discard. Paper Loading Standard Paper If you are using standard paper, you can load the paper auto-
matically or manually. Experiment to find out which method is best for you. Linered Labels If you are using linered paper, it is best to use the manual paper loading method. Automatic Paper Loading 1 Press the red self-test button to wake the printer. 2 With the loose, clean edge of the paper coming from the bot-
tom of the roll, insert the edge of the paper between the roller and the platen. 3 Pushing the button again while the printer is awake causes the mechanism to feed about one inch of paper. 4 Insert the paper into the paper well with it resting on the pa-
per rod clips. Manual Paper Loading 1 Lift up the paper release lever. This takes the pressure off the platen. Make sure you have a clean edge on the new paper roll. 6 PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 2 Take the edge of the paper and fold it 45 degrees. 3 Insert the tip of the paper between the roller and the platen. 4 Push on the paper until the tip is peeking out the other side.
(If it seems too tight to insert the tip, lift up the paper release lever and turn the gear to advance the paper). 5 Grab the tip and pull it through until the paper is straight. 6 Push down the paper release lever and insert the paper into the paper well with it resting in the paper rod clips. 7 Press the red button while the printer is on and it will feed paper. You will need about two inches of paper coming out of the mechanism. 8 Lower the cover while placing the extra paper though the tear bar. 9 Close Latch Cover and tear off extra paper.

(one on each side) Battery packs PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 9 Using Your Printer 1 Put the mobile computer in the holder on the printer. 2 As you use the printer the power comes from the battery in the printer. When the printer battery runs down the printer will not operate until the battery is recharged. PW40 Printer using Wireless Printing Serial/Wireless Mode The PW40 comes to you as a serial mode printer. To switch the mode to Wireless Printing it is necessary to toggle the mode via the self-test function of the printer. Performing the self-test indicates the current mode of the print-
er. The mode displays on the ticket and an audible indication sounds. Each time the self-test function is performed the mode will toggle between wireless printing and serial modes. Printer Self-Test 1 Press the Paper Advance (red) button for at least five seconds to run a Self-Test. Verify that the RF Module Power is On. S This means you will be holding it long enough to hear the beep and complete a paper advance. S The self-test indicates the current state of your printer. Verify the current mode by reading the Power status line from the printout. Note: When shipping your printer via air freight, turn the wireless printing mode off and set to serial to disable the radio. 700 Mobile Computer Preparation 1 On your mobile computer, tap the Bluetootht icon located in the System tray on the Today screen. 2 Select Advanced Features Bluetooth Devices. 3 From the Tools menu, select Device Discovery. You are pre-
sented with a couple of screens detailing the device discovery process. 4 You are now presented with a screen allowing you to modify the selection parameters. The default should work for your needs. 10 PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 5 Click Next to proceed. A search for Bluetooth devices is per-
formed followed by a look-up of discovered device names. The progress bars indicate the inquiry status. 6 A list of discovered devices displays:
S If your remote wireless printer is discovered and presented in the list, select the appropriate check box and click Next. S If your remote device is not displayed, ensure that the de-
vice and its radio are switched ON. Click Next, then select Finish. 7 A progress bar appears indicating Service Discovery is being performed. If the discovery is successful a screen with Successful discovery displays. Click Finish. The remote device icon appears in the Bluetooth Devices Folder. Verify that the service for this device was discovered by looking at the properties (Device Proper-
ties). If the Services tab lists Wireless Printer, the service was discovered correctly. If it doesnt, select the Update button on the Services tab to try to rediscover the services available (sometimes it will take a couple tries to correctly discover the services). 8 Verify that your Wireless Printing device is set as your favor-
ite COM device. In the Bluetooth Devices Folder, select Tools My Favorite. In the Favorites screen, ensure your printer shows as My Favorite COM Port Device. 700 Color Mobile Computer applications access the wireless printing on COM6 port. 700 Monochrome Mobile Computer applications access wireless printing on COM7 port. Note: Dropping your printer can cause a power in-
terruption to your wireless printing operation. To ensure that your Wireless Printing is still active, print a self-test. If the radio is off, the self-test turns the radio On. PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 11 Maintenance and Troubleshooting Cleaning the Interior Dirt, adhesive, and residue collect on the print head of the printer and need to be removed. Clean your printer once a month if you use it frequently, or once every three months if used infrequently. Cleaning the Exterior When the outside of your portable printer needs cleaning, use a soft cloth and mild cleanser if necessary. Do not use abrasive cleanser, chemicals or scrubbing pads, as your printers finish could become marked. Troubleshooting Paper Loading Problems If the paper feed mechanism does not feed correctly on the first part of a new paper roll, remove two to three feet of paper from the outside of the roll. The length of paper rolls can vary by as much as five feet, making the roll too thick for the printer to accommodate. If the printer is out of paper (or the paper release lever is in the up position) this condition interrupts a batch of receipts, and the printer suspends operation until the condition is fixed. The printer continues to communicate with the mobile computer as long as it does not time out. Once the printer is operational, the suspended print batch (if any) continues to print, ensuring that all receipts are properly printed. Not Printing 1 Print a self-test. If the self-test will not print, check battery voltage by plugging the printer into a wall outlet using the AC adapter. Repeat the self-test, and check the Battery Volt-
age print out. Charge battery if necessary or replace. Note: If the battery is depleted, it may take 5-10 minutes of charging before the printer can print a self-test. 2 Make sure the paper is properly installed (with lever closed). 3 Turn the print head knob to ensure that paper is not jammed. 12 PW40 Printer Quick Start Guide 4 Check cable connections. Make sure the modular connector is inserted and clipped in. 5 Check to see if your cable has been damaged by excessive pulling. A cable may also be damaged if it is bent at sharp angles. 6 Use only the recommended battery pack for the printer. 7 Printer will not print on wrong side of paper. Re-load if nec-
essary. Print Roller Appears Dirty Clean Your Printer. Linered Labels Linered label printing can cause the print head to become sticky. Print is too Light If you are not getting satisfactory darkness, connect your printer to the personal computer containing your Configuration Pro-
gram and click on the Paper Options button. Adjust the dark-
ness setting to a higher percentage until the print is dark and crisp. Charging Problems Using an AC Adapter If the printer does not respond when it is connected to an AC adapter, there could be a problem with the adapter or with the wall outlet. Note: If the battery is depleted, it may take 5-10 minutes of charging before the printer can print a self test. Using a Cigarette Lighter Adapter If the printer does not respond when it is connected to a ciga-
rette lighter adapter, it is possible that the fuse may be blown. To check, remove the cigarette lighter adapter from all power supplies and unscrew the cover over the pin. Pull out the fuse. If the elements in the fuse appear broken, replace the fuse. Programming Problems Refer to the Intermec Portable Printers Technical Reference Manu-
