19.1 Loading Roll Paper into the Built-In Printer
(Option)
This section explains how to load roll paper into the optional built-in printer.
Printer Roll Paper
Only use roll paper specifically made for use with this instrument. When you first use the printer, use
the included roll paper. When you need a new supply of roll paper, contact your nearest YOKOGAWA
dealer.
Part Number: B9316FX
Specifications: Heat sensitive paper, 10 m
Minimum Quantity: 10 rolls
Handling Roll Paper
The roll paper is made of heat sensitive paper that changes color thermochemically. Please read the
following information carefully.
Storage Precautions
When in use, the heat-sensitive paper changes color gradually at temperatures of approximately 70°
C or higher. The paper can be affected by heat, humidity, light, and chemicals, whether something has
been recorded on it or not. As such, please follow the guidelines listed below.
• Store the paper in a cool, dry, and dark place.
• Use the paper as quickly as possible after you break its protective seal.
• If you attach a plastic film that contains plasticizing material, such as vinyl chloride film or
cellophane tape, to the paper for a long time, the recorded sections will fade due to the effect of the
plasticizing material. Use a holder made of polypropylene to store the roll paper.
• When pasting the record paper to another material, do not use paste that contains organic solvents
such as alcohol or ether. Doing so will change the paper’s color.
• We recommend that you make copies of the recordings if you intend to store them for a long period
of time. Because of the nature of heat-sensitive paper, the recorded sections may fade.
Handling Precautions
• Use genuine, YOKOGAWA-supplied roll paper.
• If you touch the roll paper with sweaty hands, there is a chance that you will leave fingerprints on
the paper, thereby blurring the recorded sections.
• If you rub something against the surface of the roll paper, the paper may change color due to
frictional heat.
• If the roll paper comes into contact with products such as chemicals or oil, there is a chance that the
paper will change color or that the recorded sections will disappear.
