CAUTION
1) Do not operate the cover open lever while pressing on the printer cover with your hand.
2) Do not push the cover open lever and open the printer cover when printing is in progress
or when the auto cutter is operating.
3) Do not push out paper while the printer cover is closed.
4) TheheatingelementandthedriverICofthethermalheadareeasilydamaged.Donot
touch them with metal objects, sandpaper, etc.
5) Printing quality may suffer if the thermal head heating element becomes soiled by being
touched with your hands. Do not touch the thermal head heating element.
6) ThereisariskofdamagetothedriverICofthethermalheadfromstaticelectricity.
NeverdirectlytouchtheIC.
7) The printing quality and working life of the thermal head cannot be guaranteed if any
paperotherthanthatrecommendedisused.Inparticular,papercontaining[Na+,K+,
C1-] may drastically reduce the working life of the thermal head. Please exercise cau-
tion.
8) Do not operate the printer if there is moisture on the front surface of the head from con-
densation, etc.
9) Aprintedpieceofthermalpapermaybecomeelectricallycharged.Iftheprinteris
placed vertically or mounted on a wall, the cut piece of paper may stick to the printer,
instead of falling. Beware that this could cause a problem if you use a stacker that stores
the pieces of paper that fall freely.
10) Do not change the paper width during use. The thermal printing head, rubber roller, and
cutter wear differently according to the paper width. This can cause the printing or cutter
movement to malfunction.
11) Do not transport the printer with its cover open and holding it by the cover.
12) Do not forcibly pull on the interface cable, power cord, or cash drawer cable that is con-
nected. To detach a connector, make sure to grasp it at the connector portion, without
applying excessive stress on the connector at the printer
13) Ifyourprintergetshang-up,youmustresetitbypluggingout/intheUSBcable.How-
ever,theintervalsofperpluggingout/inmustbe5secondsormore.Shorterintervalmay
cause malfunction.
14) Do not turn off the computer or put the cpmputer in stand-by mode during printing.
15) Do not unplug the power cord or disconnect the USB cable during it is working.
Notes on Using the Auto Cutter
1) Ifthecutterisnotinitshomepositionafteranerror,rsteliminatethecauseoftheer-
ror;then,turnthepowerbackON.
2) A margin of 5 mm or more is recommended from the end of the printed area to the cutting
position.
3) Do not attempt to remove the paper during a cut, as this can cause a paper jam
