10-6. ReliabilitySpecications
1) Life Mechanical: 20 million lines
Head: 100 million pulses, 100 km (±15% max. average head resistance
uctuation)
For 2-color printing, 50 million pulses, 50 km (±15% max. aver-
age 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
e Mean Cycle Between Failure (MCBF) is dened to be the overall failure cycle, which
includes random or wear failures that occur until the printer reaches its mechanical 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 thermal
paper. No reliability can be guaranteed for the use of non-recommended thermal paper.
