Liquids

Do not place any containers with water or chemicals, such

as flower vases or cups, as well as small metallic objects

near the printer. If any of these should fall into the printer,

immediately turn off the power and contact your nearest

dealer or service center. Continued use creates the danger

of fire or electrical shock.

Foreign Matter

Do not drop or insert metallic or flammable objects into the

openings on the printer (such as outlets for cables). If any of

these should fall into the printer, immediately turn off the

power and contact your nearest dealer or service center.

Continued use creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Dropping and Damage

Should the printer ever fall or otherwise becomes damaged,

immediately turn off the power and contact your nearest

dealer or service center. Continued use creates the danger of

fire or electrical shock.

Abnormal Conditions

Continued use of the printer while it is emitting smoke or

strange odor, creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Immediately turn off the power and contact your nearest

dealer or service center for repairs. Do not try to service the

printer by yourself.

Disassembly

Never try to take the unit apart or modify it in any way.

Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Contact your nearest dealer or service center for repairs.

AC Adapter

Use only the specified voltage. Using a different voltage may

create the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Never cut, damage or modify the power cord. Also, never

place heavy objects on, set fire to or pull the power cord, as it

can damage the cord and create the danger of fire or electrical

shock.

Should the power cord ever become seriously damaged

(internal wiring exposed or shorted), contact your nearest

dealer or service center. Continued use of such a cord creates

the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Never modify, excessively bend, twist, or pull the power cord.

Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.

Location

Do not locate the printer in areas subjected to high humidity or

dew. If dew forms inside the printer, immediately turn the power

and do not use it until it has dried up. Continued use creates the

danger of electrical shock.

Power

Never operate the power switch, replace the battery pack or

unplug the AC adapter or battery charger with wet hands.

Doing so creates the danger of electrical shock.

Thermal Head and Stepping Motor

The thermal head gets very hot after printing. Take care when

replacing labels after printed and when cleaning to avoid

being burned.

Touching the edge of the thermal head with bare hands may

cause injury. Take care when replacing labels or cleaning to

avoid injury.

Do not try to replace the thermal head by yourself. Doing so

creates the danger of injury, burns or electric shock.

Cutter (Optional)

This part contains a blade. Take care to avoid cutting your

hands.

Not using the printer for a long time

Remove the battery pack from the printer and unplug the

AC adapter from the wall outlet if you do not plan to use the

printer for a long time

Maintenance and Cleaning

For safety during maintenance and cleaning, please ensure

the battery pack and the AC adapter are removed from the

printer.

should be wound face-in for the best results.

4. Slide the center justified paper guides apart until the label roll drops down

between them.

5. Place media roll in the paper tray such that the media unwinds from the

bottom of the roll toward the front of the printer. The label image surface

must face up as it passes under the print head.

both sides.

button to feed a label or to resume printing.

3.2 Loading ribbon

The CX series thermal transfer printer transfers ink from a ribbon to the label

to produce an image.

1. Lift the top cover.

2. Press the two print head releases down to unlock the print head module

and expose the ribbon supply spindles.

3. Unwrap the new ribbon and unwind 4” from the roll. The end of the

ribbon is attached to a take-up core.

4. Observe the notches on both end of the supply core and the take-up core.

These notches must fit on the corresponding nibs on both the supply and

take-up spindles.

5. Roll several turns of ribbon on the take-up core. The coated side of the

ribbon must be on the outside of the take-up roll.

6. Place the left notch of take-up core into the nib of left take-up spindle.

7. Place the right notch of take-up core into the nib of right take-up spindle.

8. Pull the ribbon on down the over the print head and insert the supply core

onto the left supply spindle, making sure the notches in the core fit over

the nibs.

9. Place the right end of the supply core into the right spindle, lining up the

notches with the spindle nibs.

Note:

Make sure the (coated) dull side of the ribbon is to the outside where it

will be in contact with the label media.

10. Turn the take-up spindle to pull the ribbon over the print head without any

slack. Check to ensure there are no ribbon wrinkles.

sides.

12. Close the top cover.

13. Wait until the ERROR no more blinks and becomes OFF, press the FEED

button to feed a label or to resume printing.

3.3 Selecting the label sensor type

CX series printers can use Eye-mark, gap or notch label sensing. The sensing

method use by the printer must match to the media being used. If you are

using label printing software, it should provide a mean to set up these

parameters. See your software documentation for details. If you are writing

your own software or controlling the printer using direct commands, you must

use printer commands to set up the printer mode and sensing method.
