2-3. Handling Care

1. Be careful not to drop paper clips, pins or other foreign matter into the unit

as these cause the printer to malfunction.

2. Do not attempt to print when either paper or ribbon cartridge is not located

in the printer, otherwise the print head can be damaged.

3. Do not open the cover while printing.

4. Do not touch the print head immediately aer printing as it gets very hot.

5. Use only roll paper that is not glued to the core.

6. When the paper end mark appears on the paper, replace the roll paper before

it runs out.

WARNING

PShut down your equipment immediately if it produces smoke, a strange

odor, or unusual noise. Immediately unplug the equipment and contact

your dealer for advice.

PNever attempt to repair this product yourself. Improper repair work can be

dangerous.

PNever disassemble or modify this product. Tampering with this product

may result in injury, re, or electric shock.

PDuring and immediately aer printing, the area around the print head is

very hot. Do not touch it, as you could be burned.

CAUTION

P

We recommend that you unplug the printer from the power outlet

whenever you do not plan to use it for long periods. Because of this, you

should locate the printer so that the power outlet it is plugged into is

nearby and easy to access.

P

If the voltage shown on the label on the of your printer does not match the

voltage for your area, contact your dealer immediately.

P

Make sure that the printer is turned o and unplugged from the AC outlet

and that the computer is turned o before making connections.

P

Do not connect a telephone line into the modular connector.

PDo not pull out paper while the printer cover is closed.

PIf liquids, foreign objects (coins and paper clips), and so on enter the

printer, turn o the printer, unplug it from the AC outlet, and contact your

dealer for advice. Continued use could cause a short circuit, which may

result in re or electric shock.

2-4. Maintenance

Essentially, your printer is a robust piece of equipment, but should be treated

with a modicum of care in order to avoid malfunctions. For example:

1. Keep your printer in a “comfortable” environment. Roughly speaking, if you

feel comfortable, then the environment is suitable for your printer.

2. Do not subject the printer to physical shocks or excessive vibration.

3. Avoid over-dusty environments. Dust is the enemy of all precision

mechanical devices.

4. To clean the exterior of the printer, use a cloth barely dampened with either

water with a little detergent or a little alcohol, but do not allow any liquid to

fall inside the printer.

5. The interior of the printer may be cleaned with a small cleaner or a

compressed-air aerosol (sold for this purpose). When performing this

operation, be sure not to bend or damage any cable connections or electronic

components.
