Please read the following information carefully before installing and using the printer
THE CAUTION SYMBOL
Whenever the triangular Caution logo appears in this manual, pay special attention to the warning(s) cited
below it. Failure to abide by the warnings may result in injury or damage to property.
PRINTER PLACEMENT TIPS
• Place the printer on a solid, stable, horizontal sur-
face that is not subject to strong vibrations from adja-
cent mechanical devices.
• Avoid shaky or slanting tables, or platforms that are
liable to collapse under a heavy weight. If the printer
is dropped or damaged, immediately turn off the
power, pull out the power plug and contact a service
center. In this case, continued use of the printer may
cause a fire or electric shocks.
• Avoid installing the printer in direct sunlight, or in
dusty, very hot or slippery areas. Also avoid place-
ment in damp, unventilated or humid areas. If con-
densation forms, immediately turn off the power, and
do not use the printer until the condensation disap-
pears. Otherwise the moisture may cause electric
shocks.
• Avoid placing the printer near large high-current
equipment, as such equipment can cause spikes or
under-voltages in the power supply.
• Do not leave containers of water or chemicals
around the printer. If any liquid is spilled onto
the printer, immediately turn off the power, pull
out the power cable from the AC outlet, and
contact a sales outlet, dealer, or service center.
In this case, continued use of the printer may
cause fires or electric shocks.
• Do not move the printer with any paper loaded.
The stack of paper may fall off, causing trips
and accidents.
• When laying the printer down, be careful not to
catch your foot or fingers under it.
• When moving the printer, be sure to pull out the
power cable from the AC outlet, and check that
any other external interface cables have been
disconnected. Otherwise, the connected cables
may be damaged, or may cause trips and falls,
in addition to or a fire or electric shocks.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
• When using head cleaning liquid, note that it is flam-
mable. Never heat it or throw it into a fire. Keep it out
of children’s reach to avoid accidental consumption.
Should this occur, consult a doctor immediately.
• When opening/closing the cover, beware of getting
your fingers caught. Also, hold the opening/closing
cover well so that it will not slip and fall onto the
hand.
• After printing, the print head remains hot. When
replacing paper or cleaning the printer immediately
after printing, be careful not to burn yourself.
• Touching even the edge of the printer head may
cause injuries. When replacing paper or cleaning the
printer, be careful not to hurt yourself.
• If the printer will not be used for extended periods of
time, disconnect the power cable for safety.
• When releasing and locking down the printer head,
be careful not to catch any other foreign matter in it
except label paper.
• Do not disassemble or perform modifications to
the printer, as this renders the product unsafe.
For maintenance, troubleshooting and repairs,
consult a sales outlet, dealer, or service center
for help, instead of attempting to perform this
yourself. Renewable annual service contracts
are available.
• When maintaining or cleaning the printer,
always disconnect the power cable for safety.
• Do not insert your hand or other objects into the
cutter.
• When loading roll paper, be careful not to catch
your fingers between the paper and the feeder.
• Be careful not to hurt yourself when detaching
the back cover of the fanfold through the hole
and attaching it.
• The simplified cutter (if applicable to the printer)
is structured as a blade. Be careful to avoid
injury when operating the printer.
