Printer
Do not apply excessive force to the printer.
Force or impact on the printer may result in paper jams or equipment damage.
Do not turn the power on and off repeatedly when you do not intend to print.
The printer initialization process consumes ink and the equivalent of several pages could be wasted.
Be careful not to spray the equipment with insecticides or volatile substances. In addition, do not store the
equipment in contact with rubber or vinyl products for long periods of time.
These materials may cause deformation of the printer’s casing.
If the printer overheats, it will temporarily stop operating. This does not mean that the printer has
malfunctioned. The printer will resume normal printing as soon as it cools down. Temporary stoppages are
most likely to occur in the following cases:
When printing continuously.
If a room is unusually warm.
If the air vents on the back of the printer are blocked or if ventilation is inadequate.

If the springs are bent or deformed, paper will not feed correctly into the printer.
Do not place any foreign objects in the print output tray (on the top of the paper cassette).
Do not touch the print side (shiny side) of the paper with your fingers.
Always hold the paper along the edges (outside the perforated border). Be sure that hands are dry before
touching the paper. Sharp objects will scratch the paper surface. Keep the paper surface free from
fingerprints, dust, water droplets, etc.
Do not handle the ink cassette with wet or sweaty hands.
To prevent malfunctions and damage caused by electromagnetic fields
Never position the equipment close to motors or other devices that generate strong electromagnetic fields.
Moreover, do not use near televisions or AM radio.
To prevent condensation
Avoid condensation on the equipment when moving it from a cold to a hot place, by putting it in an airtight,
sealable plastic bag and allow for adjustment to temperature changes gradually before removing from the
bag. In the event that condensation does form within the equipment, keep it at room temperature until the
water droplets evaporate naturally before use.
