2.9 Care of Recording Paper
Care of recording paper
・While unopened, thermal paper will not be affected by the environment,
provided that ambient temperature and humidity do not exceed normal
levels. For long-term storage, temperature should be lower than 40
.Low
temperatures cause no problem.
・After opening, protect the paper from strong light, to prevent discoloration.
Storing data
The recording paper uses a thermochemical reaction. Note the following
points:
・To avoid discoloration, do not leave recording paper in direct sunlight.
・Store at not more than 40 and 90%RH.
・To keep definitive data, make photocopies of the recordings.
・Thermal paper will blacken when brought into contact with alcohol, ester,
ketone, or other volatile organic substances.
・If the thermal paper absorbs an organic solvent such as alcohols or ketones it
may no longer develop properly, and recorded information may fade. Soft
PVC film and transparent contact adhesive tape contain such solvents, so
avoid using them with recordings.
・Avoid interleaving the thermal recordings with damp diazo copies.
