to the printhead. Before storing a Propaq Encore for more than two months
without use, remove the roll of printer paper.
Caution Use only low-debris printer paper purchased from or recommended by

specifications listed in Appendix B. Failure to properly store paper can result in
paper discoloration and damage to the printer.
