Printer Attachment

First you establish contact between the AXIS 370 Cobra and the PC

type printer. Prepare this by checking that the printer is ready to use.

You may also need an optional external power supply, if the printer is

unable to supply the AXIS 370 Cobra.

1. Switch off the printer.

2. Connect the AXIS 370 Cobra to the printer,

either directly to

the parallel printer port, or using the optional printer cable

extension and Velcro ribbons.

3. Set the rotary switch to position ‘9’

(test printout function).

4. Switch on the printer.

5. Connect the optional external power supply

(if needed).

The POWER indicator (green) is lit and the SYSTEM indicator

(green) will flash for a few seconds.

If the POWER indicator is not lit, the printer is unable to supply

power to the AXIS 370 Cobra. Connect an external power supply to

the AXIS 370 Cobra.

The AXIS 370 Cobra will produce a test printout on the printer which

shows the firmware revision and basic configuration. The default

configuration is for a Generic Printer.
