Paper
• Use the correct size paper roll
• Poor-quality thermal paper can jam
the printer and create excessive paper
dust. To order high-quality paper,
please contact EFTPOS New Zealand
• Store thermal paper in a dry, dark
area. Handle thermal paper carefully:
impact, friction, temperature, humidity,
and oils affect the colour and storage
characteristics of the paper
• Never load a roll of paper with folds,
wrinkles, tears, or holes at the edges
• Before installing a fresh paper roll into
the terminal, remove at least 20cm
of paper from the roll to ensure tape
residue or gum is not on the paper
• To clean the paper roll area, use a
clean cloth slightly dampened with
water and a drop or two of mild soap
CAUTION: To prevent the paper roll cover
from damaging the print roller, always
gently press down on the printer dust cover
to close it.
