Important Operation Precautions
Do not poke or impact the touch screen with sharp materials.
The built-in photocell should not be covered when in use, or the printer will not print.
Please use the lint free cloth to wipe the nozzle plate when the print is not clear or dots are missing.
When the printing position is changed, please set the printing delay to achieve the best printing
result.
