Re: Paper For HP97 Message #2 Posted by Randy on 23 May 2006, 10:25 p.m., in response to message #1 by jyl
Any 2-1/4" thermal paper will work in a 97. 57mm x 26 meter long rolls fit fine, if you buy longer rolls, you'll have to cut some layers off so they fit properly. Don't use old HP paper that may come with the unit as it is quite stale and will not give good print quality.
A 97 CANNOT and WILL NOT work on ac power alone. Restated: You ABSOLUTELY need a good battery for a 97 to function properly.
If your printer prints irregular length lines, it's almost always a bad battery.
If the unit has not been recently reconditioned, you're almost guaranteed to have card reader and printer problems.
