Precautions for Installation and Handling
Printer operation can be affected by the printer environment.
Refer to the following instructions for installation and handling of the printer.
Select a Safe Location
Power Supply
Place the printer on a surface that is flat and level.
If the surface is not flat and level, this may result in poor
print quality. This may also cause malfunction and
shorten the life span of the printer.
Do not place the printer on a location that
produces vibration.
Do not carry the printer when the roll label is set.
Vibrating the printer may cause malfunction and
shorten the life span of the printer.
Keep the printer out of high temperature and hu-
midity.
Avoid locations subject to extreme or rapid changes
in temperature or humidity.
Do not place the printer in a location subject to
water or oil.
Do not place the printer in a location where it will be
splashed with water or oil. Water or oil in the printer
may cause a fire, electric shock, or malfunction.
Avoid dust.
Dust build up may result in poor print quality. This
may cause not only malfunction but also shorten the
life span of the printer.
Keep out of direct sunlight.
This printer has a built-in optical sensor. Exposure to
direct sunlight will make the sensor less responsive
and may cause the label to be sensed incorrectly.
Close the top cover when printing.
This printer requires an AC power supply.
Be sure to connect the printer to an AC power supply
via the supplied AC adapter. Failure to do so may result
in malfunction.
Connect the power cord to a grounded power
outlet.
Make sure that the printer is plugged into a grounded
power outlet.
Provide a stable source of electricity to the
printer.
Do not share the power outlets with other appliances
such as a heater and refrigerator requiring a
measurable amount of power. Also, avoid using the
power outlet near where such appliances are
plugged into. This may cause voltage reduction and
malfunction.
