Information in this publication is subject to change without notice. However, as product improvements become
available, TransAct Technologies Incorporated will make every effort to provide updated information for the
products described in this publication. TransAct Technologies Incorporated cannot guarantee that changes in

applicability of information in this publication.
The POSjet™1000 Printer complies with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the
specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. These regulations are designed to minimize radio frequency interference
during installation; however, there is no guarantee that radio or television interference will not occur during any
particular installation. Interference can be determined by turning the equipment off and on while the radio or
television is on. If the printer causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient the radio or television receiving antenna
2. Relocate the printer with respect to the receiver
3. Plug the printer and receiver into different circuits
If necessary, the user should consult their dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for additional
suggestions. The user may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful:
How to Identify and Resolve Radio/TV Interference Problems. This booklet is available from the US Government
Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Ask for stock number 004-000-00345-4.
The POSjet™ 1000 Printer does not exceed Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in
the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Cable restraints have been developed to protect against accidental unplugging of the printer while it is in use. Be sure
to properly route the communications cable using the restraints provided on the back of the printer.
1. Orientate the printer upside-down and locate the cash drawer restraint. The cash drawer restraint is offset from
the middle of the cabinetry base.
2. Plug the cash drawer harness into the connector on the printer’s interface card.
3. Route the harness through the cash drawer cable restraint, then position it between the two remaining cable
restraints and connect it to your system.
'
Depending on the interface your system uses, either connect the serial or parallel communication cable to the
appropriate connector on the back of the printer. Cables are provided by your dealer or system installer. If cables are
unavailable, see “Contacting TransAct’s Ithaca Facility”, on page iv.

Check the CAUTION label on the bottom of printer. This label indicates the cash drawer
configuration setting that shipped with the printer. There will be either an Ithaca, Star, or Epson
compatability sticker on your printer. Verify that the label’s configuration matches the cash drawer
in your application.
The POSjet™ 1000 Printer supports dual cash drawers with status.
The Cash Drawer can be configured for one of three settings. The interface card has a 14-pin header with a 10-pin
shunt installed on it. The shunt position defines the configuration of the cash drawer. Refer to the markups on the
board when determining where the shunt should be installed to work in the three different configurations. Refer to
“Cash Drawer Interface Description and Specifics”, on page 25 for information on how to install the cash drawer.

1. Use the
button to turn the printer off.
2. Orientate the printer so you are looking at the rear underside of the unit and locate the small cash drawer
connector to the left of the communication connector.
3. Connect the cash drawer cable to the connector located on the back of the printer, making sure that the cash
drawer cable snaps into place.

Factory Setting:
The factory setting leaves
room for adjusting the Paper
L
ow Sensor up or down by
three full turns with a screw
driver.
Upper Limit Setting:
When adjusted, the sensor
will move up and away from
the Cabinetry Base. Do not
adjust anymore than 3 turns
counter clockwise from the
mid-position setting.
Lower Limit Setting:
When adjusted, the sensor
moves down and toward the
Cabinetry Base. Do not
adjust anymore than 3 turns
clockwise, from the
mid-position setting.
")!*'"
All printers ship with a factory default, mid-position setting that can be adjusted up or down with 1 to 3 full turns of
the adjustment screw. The amount of paper remaining after paper low detection is dependent on this adjustment.
Generally, in most cases the paper low setup does not need to be changed from the factory setting.
, -.)
1. Open the rear paper cover and locate the paper low adjustment access hole.
2. Refer to Table 2 on the following page for specific adjustment settings.
3. Turn screw to control the amount of paper that is remaining after paper low has occurred.
CAUTION: When the sensor touches the plastic of the cabinetry base (lower limit only), the sensor should not be
adjusted any further. Over adjustment will cause stress in the sensor material and will decrease its longevity.

The printer should be turned ON by using the
Button before you install ink cartridges. Confirm that the printer is
ON by checking that the power indicator light is activated. Refer to “Chapter 4: Using Keypad Controls”, on page 18
for information on the power indicator light.
Caution: Do not touch ink cartridge’s metallic connector surface with your fingers. Doing so will contaminate the
connector and produce bad print quality.
1. Open the front cover of printer (Opening front
cover automatically opens rear paper cover.)
(NOTE: If paper is present, ensure that receipt
is torn off prior to opening front cover.
2. Pull down blue cartridge latch/latches
3. Remove new ink cartridge from sealed pouch.
(Hold cartridge by round tab to avoid contamination.)
4. Remove mylar tape from face of new ink cartridge.
5. Place new ink cartridge(s) into carriage. Hold round tab
to ensure clean installation. Black cartridges go into left
carriage. Color cartridges go into right carriage. (Round
tab faces to front of printer.) Refer to the drawings
below to see how to install the ink cartridges into carriage.
6. Close blue latch/latches.
7. Press the NEW CARTRIDGE Button. Doing this initializes
the ink status on the newly inserted ink cartridges.
Note: If you are installing the printer, an ink cartridge or cartridges
can be found in the pouch that shipped with your printer.

Before you attempt to load the paper roll, make sure that the printer is plugged in and that the printer is turned ON.
!IMPORTANT!: Paper cannot be loaded for the first time without first installing ink cartridge(s). If this is a
new installation, a small receipt roll is supplied with the printer.
1. Open printer’s rear paper cover. (First time installers will already have the cover open from installing ink
cartridges.)
2. Insert the paper roll so that the paper unwinds from the bottom and rests on the top of the front cover.
3. Make sure paper is to the top front edge of the front cover. This is done to give the printer enough room to
complete the automatic loading process and prepare for operation.
4. Close the rear paper cover. The printer will automatically load the paper through the feeding mechanism. If the
paper does not feed, repeat the steps.
