Precautions When Using Printer
Printing Accuracy
1. During high-duty printing such as printing horizontal lines or printing while the
battery remaining capacity is low, the printing speed may slow down to prevent
excess current consumption that may cause unaligned printing for one dot or
more.
2. Line change errors may occur if the printing interval between lines is about one
second or more. In the case of using formed sheet paper, either use a large frame
with free spaces available or set the printer to continuously print to prevent the
line change errors.
3. Because printing may pause if the battery remaining capacity is low, line
alignment error or printing with uneven space between characters may occur
when printing resumes later.
4. Printing may be illegible right after the roll paper cover has been opened for
reloading roll paper. This can be prevented by feeding the roll paper before
starting printing again.
5. The printer will not print unless the paper is loaded properly. Always make
sure to properly load the paper before starting printing.
6. Only use the recommended printer paper. Use of paper other than the
recommended printer paper can reduce printing quality, shorten printer service
life or cause other detrimental effects that have the risk of impairing printer
characteristics.
7. Observe the following when storing printer paper.
• Do not store paper in locations subject to high temperature and high humidity since
spontaneous coloring of the paper occurs at temperatures of 60°C (140°F) and
above.
• Store paper in a cool, dark location while avoiding excessive exposure to direct
sunlight.
• Plastic films containing plasticizers, ester-based erasers, tape and glue can cause
discoloration, while contact with organic solvents, diazo copy paper or scratching
with the fingernail, etc. can cause the paper to become colored.
