Care and Handling of the Media
• Do not store the media for longer than the manufactures recommended shelf life.
• Store media rolls on the flat end, not store them on the curved sides as this might flatten that side causing
erratic media advance and poor print quality.
• Store the media in plastic bags and always reseal after opening. Unprotected media can get dirty and any
extra abrasion from any dust and dirt particles will shorten the print head life.
• Store the media in a cool, dry place. Avoid areas where they would be exposed to direct sunlight, high
temperatures, high humidity, dust or gas.
• The thermal paper used for direct thermal printing must not have specifications which exceed Ca
++
800
ppm, Na
+
800 ppm, K
+
800 ppm and Cl
-
600 ppm.
• Some ink used on pre-printed labels may contain components which shorten the print head’s product life.
Do not use labels pre-printed with ink which contains hard substances such as carbonic calcium (CaCO
3
)
and kaolin (Al
2
O
3
, 2SiO
2
, 2H
2
O).
