livered are removed from the packaging. Claims for compensation that are based on damage that occured du-
ring shipment can only be asserted, if the delivery service is notified immediately.
Please write a damage report and send it to the supplier, together with the defective part.

As shown in the picture, the printer housing can also be instal-
led at the edge of a casing. This installation variant has the
part of the printer housing that contains the paper roll exten-
ding beyond the unit casing. This saves room in the device ca-
sing for the installation of other components.
To facilitate installation in different casing shapes, the outer
wall of the paper storage was left smooth below the bearing
collar. The housing can project about 19 mm from the casing
edge, since about half of the paper storage can be used, right
up to the slanting slot for inserting the mounting plate.

The plastic housing of the GPT-4352 printer can be installed with two
screws in an easily done cut-out of a front panel with up to 4 mm thick-
ness. The contact surface is flat. The edge of the housing juts out by 1
mm, covering the space between the panel and the housing.
The housing is pushed into the cut-out from the outside, and then ea-
sily screwed on.
The two holes of 2.8 mm diameter allow the use of M 2.5 screws.

Interface cable GKA-406, included in sets 1 and 2, is connected to the connector J2. For RS232 versions, this

The printer GPT-4352-LV-82-IR-EVAL has an internal IR-tranceiver directly under the red foil window of the control
panel. If the infrared interface adapter GCT-4382-20 is connected using the cable GKA-408, the internal tranceiver
will automatically turn off.

On the GPT-4352-LV-82-TTL(4,5V)-EVAL, the RS232 interface driver is not integrated, but the TTL signals of the
UART are directly ground through to J2. This enables the connection of opto isolated interface adapters for
RS232, RS422/485, and TTY.
33
33....33 33 Connecting the battery charger (3)
EVAL printers have a standard charging circuit for 4 Ni-MH
cells. An operation with 3 or 5 cells is also possible. The char-
ging is performed by the uncontrolled plug-in power supply
GNG-6V-0,5A-U that has a special internal resistance. It is
connected through the cable GKA-416 to the connector J1.
The charging time for a 1200 mA/h battery will be about 5
hours.During the charging process, the LED on the control
panel will display different pulses that show, whether the fast
or trickle charging mode is active.

The printer can be supplied with fixed voltage from a power supply or a battery. Battery or power supply are
plugged into the same connector. Through the voltage supply connection, the printer can be supplied with vol-
tages between 3.5 V (for printers with Centronics adapters with 4.5V) and 7.2 V. The supply for the logic chip is
produced on the board. The power cable GKA-410, included in sets 1 and 3, is connected to the connector J4
(3 red wires for + 3.5 -7.2 VDC , 3 black grounding wires, and one white cable for an NTC 6.8 KOhm of a Ni-
MH battery). For simple power connections, the white wire remains unconnected. We recommend keeping the
length of the line as short as possible. The longer the line, the higher the line resistance, causing bad print qua-
lity or even printer failure.
AA
AAtt tttt ttee eenn nntt ttiiiioo oonn nn:::: Avoid confusing the connection poles, because it can cause immediate damage to the printer. Ca-
refully check the power supply connection before you turn on the printer.

Starting with hardware version V1.4c the standard version does not support the power-off mode.
The controller comes with different levels of power saving modes (power down modes):
• idle mode (8 mA typical)
• sleep mode (20 ±A typical)
• power-off mode (0.1 ±A typical), optional configuration requi-
red
During the receiving of data and during printing the controller is
in an active status.
With the parallel interface, the ballast resistor R35 is not part
of the standard configuration.
Connect jumper J3 for idle mode.
Remove jumper J3 for sleep mode.
Power-off logic ist not in the standard configuration (replaced
by R37).

Never use a fixed-voltage power supply for charging the batteries. The charging circuit is a
"simple switch control", meaning that the current limitation is not done in the charge control of the
printer, but in the plug-in power supply.
Please use the suitable GeBE power supply GNG-6.0V-0,5A-U.

All commands for initializing the controller are filed in the text file "TINIT ". TINIT is available in the flash memory of
the printer and in the EEPROM (Note: Low-priced controllers with minimal functionality may not have an EE-
PROM). An entry in the EEPROM cancels entries in the Flash. For example, if a printer is to print double height and
inverse in data mode, the relevant commands are entered in the text file "TINIT". After a RESET, the controller will
first carry out its basic initialization, read the solder bridge settings, and then process the commands in the
"TINIT". Therefore, the commands in the "TINIT" have final authority regarding the valid settings. Custom settings
can also be achieved through entries in the text file "TINIT". If an EEPROM is available, "TINIT" can also be altered
through an interface.
The basic initialization of the controller corresponds with the following instructions that are initially not entered in
the "TINIT: <ESC> "A"; <ESC> "D" "0"; <ESC> "H" "0"; <ESC> "I" "0";
<ESC> "L" "0"; <ESC> "M" "0"; <ESC> "N" 0 0; <ESC> "P" 1; <ESC> "S"0; <ESC> "W" "0".
In order to change these settings, they have to be added to the "TINIT".

The printer is specified for a paper width of 57.5 Ø 0.5 mm, with a weight
of 60 g/sq m. GeBE is offering suitable paper rolls (GPR-T01-057-031-
007-060A) as part of the standard program. Other papers may not be sui-
table for use.
Thermal papers that are resistant against water, grease, or alcohol are
available for special applications. We will gladly assist you in your selec-
tion of the suitable thermal paper.

On the paper roll, the side to print on is, in almost all cases, the outside. If
you should have any doubts, just do the fingernail test: Quickly drive the
edge of a fingernail with slight pressure over the paper. The thermosensiti-
ve side will turn black as a result of the frictional heat.

tightly.

wards. The print roll is lifted from the mechanism together with the cover.
The cover is now easy to open.
33
33.... Insert the paper roll in the paper storage, so the outside shows toward
the printer mechanism. Only this outside can be printed on.
44

Now you can rip off paper at the tear bar without the cover opening up or

head.

Not every error is a printer error.
You will save time and money by clearing simple errors yourself.
The following hints might help you:

The printer seems to print, but there is
no blackenin
g
A
t the start of printing, the LED goes
out shortly.
Wrong side of paper against the
print head
The power supply is not laid out
and/or connected optimally
Insert paper correctly
Use a sufficiently proportioned po-
wer supply and short lines. Check
all plug-in connections for transfer
resistances. Since high peak cur-
rents occur with thermal printers,
even the smallest transfer resistan-
ces result in excessive voltage
drops. In this case, no power supply
would be strong enough. Buffering
with capacitors is possible, if the
power supply is only slightly too
weak, and large capacitors (e.g.
4700±F) are used.
The printer only prints a few dots in
one line.
The paper feed works, but the self
test does not.
The printer only prints a few charac-
ters in one line. When I enter more, it
won't print at all.
The print-out is incomplete after a few
characters. The printer buffer is "over-run" (256 bytes), so data is getting lost. Solution: Check or start using handshake. (software: XON/XOFF, or
hardware: CTS). If necessary, lower
output speed, e.g. down to1.200
baud. See manual MAN-D-400,
"Interface Settin
g
s".
The printer prints incorrect charac-
ters. RS232 instead of TTL interface or the other way around.
(characters of the upper area are
printed).
Wrong baud rate was selected. (a
lot of "?" are printed).
Use correct interface.
Set baud rate through solder
bridges or TINIT.
Bad ground connection on the prin-
ter. If the printer is not grounded
correctly, a part of the printing cur-
rent will flow through the interface,
causing a voltage rise and therefo-
re, a data falsification.
Host sends a break signal after
printjob (onl
y
"?" are printed).
Check and improve ground connec-
tion; supply power through short,
thick lines.
Turn off "framing error ". See manual
MAN-E-401, "Interface Settin
g
s".
Centronics printer works with a PC,
but not with my machine.
The described command does not
work.
Printer electrically not compatible
with host.
Parameter were e.g. set in ASCII
values instead of binar
y
values.
Measure line levels. Contact GeBE
for adjustment.
Reset parameters.
