•Note that Pitney Bowes does not assume responsibility for any damage, etc. arising from failure to follow the precautions listed.

•When peeling a LA Die-cut Label, some portion of the label may remain. Remove the remaining portion before attaching a new label.

•Do not drop the LA Roll, or damage to the LA Roll could result.

•Be careful when handling the LA Roll.

Dropping the roll may break the spool and make it unusable.

CD-ROM & Software

•Do not scratch the CD-ROM.

•Do not subject the CD-ROM to extremely high or extremely low temperatures.

•Do not put heavy objects on the CD-ROM or apply force to the CD-ROM.

•The software contained on the CD-ROM is meant for use with the LPS-1 only. See License on CD for further details. This software may be installed on multiple personal computers for use at an office, etc.

•Some DK rolls use permanent adhesive for their labels. These labels cannot be neatly peeled off once attached.

AC power cord

•Use only the AC power cord included with the LPS-1.

•If the LPS-1 will not be used for an extended period, remove the power supply cord from the electrical outlet.

•Always hold the plug when removing the power cord from or inserting it into the outlet. Pulling on the cord could cause a problem with the power cord.

•The standard electrical outlet shall be installed near the LPS-1 and shall be easily accessible.

Cutter unit

• To prevent injury from the broken cutter blade and unit, follow these points:

Close the top cover when operating the cutter unit. Don’t apply excessive pressure to the cutter unit. When the cutter blade becomes dull, replace the existing cutter unit with a new one. If the cutter blade should break off, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and remove the cutter unit carefully with tweezers so you do not touch the blade.

• If a paper jam should occur due to a build up of adhesive on the paper guide surface, unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet and wipe away the adhesive buildup on the paper guide surface with a cloth dipped in ethanol or isopropyl (rubbing)alcohol. It is recommended that you clean the paper guide when replacing the cutter unit.

•The average number of cuts is 5,000 or more depending on the operating environment. Dull cut, the inability to cut straight, or frequent paper jams may indicate that the cutter life is near the end. Replace the cutter if these conditions occur.
