2.2 Instructions for paper install
2.2.1 Paper Loading
Thermal paper installed as below:
In the state of power-on, pull out a little from the paper roll, then put the paper into the mouth
of printing mechanism, the printer will auto paper feeding .
Note: make sure the paper is cut flat when loading.
2.2.2 Solution for paper jam of cutter
If the cutter is jammed, turn off the power and turn on the printer again, the cutter will recover.
If the paper is jammed, please open the rubber roll and take out the paper. If the cutter does not
recover after reset, you can move the plastic gears on the cutter to recover the cutter.

15
If you want to keep the data when the cutter is jammed, please do not turn off the power and
use the manual method to recover the cutter. Then open the rubber roll and take out the jammed
paper, now turn off the rubber roll. The printer will recover from the paper cutting errors.
2.2.3 Anti-jamming and Anti-pulling function
During printer work, the user tears paper, pull the paper and jams the paper. This type of
operation triggers the printer's Anti-jamming and Anti-pulling function, as follows:
(1) The user tears paper, pull the paper will triggers the printer's Anti-jamming and
Anti-pulling function, the printer will automatically cut paper to avoid other abnormal phenomena
such as paper dislocation caused by tear paper and pull paper. After the cutter is finished, it will
automatically resume the normal printing state.
(2) Artificial jam will triggers the printer's Anti-jamming and Anti-pulling function, The printer
will stop printing until there is no paper jam, the printer automatically returns to the normal printing
state.
(3) If the printer configured with the function of no taking the paper: after the completion of
cutting , if not taking the paper, the anti-jamming and Anti-pulling module will give a light alarm,
and it will automatically return to the normal printing state after taking the paper with normal data.
Note: it is necessary to confirm whether the no taking the paper function is supported. If so,
when designing products, we need to consider a single get application scenario to avoid not
taking the paper then leads to not printing.
2.3 Interface connection
2.3.1 Serial interface connection
SP-EU804/EU805 printer serial interface is compatible with RS-232C,support DTR/DSR and
XON/XOFF handshaking protocol. Its interface is PH-5PIN pin type socket outlet. The pin number
of serial interface socket as shown in figure 2-1:

2.4 Lights and buttons operation
SP-EU805 printer has one button and three lights.
【FEED 】is paper feeding button, available to print commands allow or prohibit button switch
function, in the condition of allow button control, press 【FEED 】button printer feeding paper,
loosen【FEED】button,stop feeding paper.
Green power indicator light is for power light. POWER indicator lighting means printer has
been switched on .
Red light for PAPER OUT indicator is paper status indicator. When it is light, it means the
printer is out of paper.
