ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 7 Setting up the Printer This section details the connections, loading methods, memory module installation, and resident ticket formats of the printer. 3.0 AC Voltage Configuration Depending upon the configuration of the AC Selection Switch and fuse, the printer is capable of either 115 or 230 VAC single-phase operation.
8 ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 3.1 Interfacing the Printer Interfacing the printer to the host computer can be made through either a parallel or a serial cable (see Appendix C for cable requirements). Communication port selection is automatic: the first port to receive data is set ‘active’ by the printer.
ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 9 Printer power and interface connections: Follow these instructions to connect the printer. Œ Turn ‘Off’ the power to the Host Computer. • Verify that the Printer’s AC Configuration has been set; see Section 3.0. Ž Connect the interface cable securely between the Printer and Host communication ports.
10 ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 3.2 Loading Ticket Stock Both printers feature an automatic ticket loading and positioning mechanism, although the initial loading instructions differ slightly according to model and options. 3.2.1 ST Models Œ Plug in and turn ‘On’ the printer.
ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 11 To use roll ticket stock , the stock must be mounted on the optional Roll Hanger, as shown.

ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 31 4.4 Maintenance Routine maintenance will ensure the optimum performance of the printer. The following table outlines the recommended cleaning intervals, while the items li.
32 ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 4.4.1 Cleaning the Printhead Declining print quality (i.e., dropouts, streaking, or smudging) is usually caused by a surface build-up of dirt on the printhead; see Section 3.5.2 for an example. Left unattended, this build-up can lead to permanent printhead damage.
ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 33 4.4.2 Cleaning the Platen Roller Print quality can decline if the platen roller becomes contaminated with paper dust, grit or adhesive. When this build-up is not removed, it can cause abrasive damage to the printhead. To clean the Platen Roller: Œ Turn ‘Off’ and unplug the printer.
34 ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 4.4.3 TOF Sensor Cleaning If the TOF Sensor becomes blocked with paper particles, Top of Form detection can be inconsistent or fail completely. To clean the sensor: Œ Turn ‘Off’ and unplug the printer. • ST Models: Raise the access cover ; see Section 3.
ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 35 4.4.4 Ticket Detect Sensor Cleaning The Ticket Detect Sensor initiates the auto-loading process by signaling the presence of ticket stock within the Media Guides. If the sensor becomes blocked with paper particles, ticket feeding problems can occur.
36 ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 4.4.5 Interior Cleaning ST Models only: Ticket Compartment Cleaning During normal operation, paper particles from the ticket stock accumulate inside the printer. These particles can stick to the ticket and cause voids in the print, reducing print quality.
ST/SV-3210 and ST/SV-3306 37 Troubleshooting 5.0 Troubleshooting Tips This section addresses common problems and suggests solutions.
