10-6. Reliability
1) Life Mechanical: 20 million lines
Head: 100 million pulses, 100 km (±15% max. average head resist-
ance uctuation)
For 2-color printing, 50 million pulses, 50 km (±15% max. av-
erage head resistance uctuation)
Auto cutter: 1 million cuttings (provided the paper thickness is between 65
and 85 µm)
<Conditions>
Average printing ratio: 12.5%
Recommended thermal paper: 65 µm
2) MCBF: 60 million lines
The Mean Cycle Between Failure (MCBF) is dened to be the overall failure cycle,
which includes random or wear failures that occur until the printer reaches its mechani-
cal life of 20 million lines.
* As the mechanical remains at 20 million lines, the MCBF of 60 million lines does not in-
dicate its useful life.
3) Auto Cutter (Life)
1 million cuttings (provided the paper thickness is between 65 and 85 µm)
* All the reliability values indicated above are based on the use of the recommended ther-
mal paper. No reliability can be guaranteed for the use of non-recommended thermal pa-
per.
