BEFORE OPERATION

HANDLING OF PAPER / RIBBON KIT

BEFORE PRINTING

• Fingerprints or dust on the paper printing surface may produce poor print quality and cause paper jams.

• When the print paper or ribbon is abruptly transferred from a cool place to a hot place, vapor or dew is generated on the

surface, which causes paper jams or degraded print quality. Leave the print paper in the room to stabilize its temperature

before use.

• If you repeat the PRINT PAPER INSTALLATION procedure more than the designated number of times, the indicated

number of prints may not be made. In addition, if you replace the print paper before it is used up, the indicated number of

prints may not be made.

AFTER PRINTING

• If the paper absorbs nonvolatile organic solvents (alcohol, ester, ketone, etc.) the print may be discolored.

• Discoloration of prints is accelerated if the print paper comes into contact with soft vinyl chloride such as transparent

tape.

• Avoid storing prints in direct sunlight or places with high humidity.

STORAGE OF PAPER / RIBBON KIT

• Do not store the print paper and ribbon in the container made of soft polyvinyl chloride. They may be discolored because

of chemical reaction.

• Store the print paper and ribbon out of direct sunlight and away from heating appliances in a cool, dark place where the

temperature is 5˚C to 30˚C and the humidity is 20% to 60% RH.
