Zebra Technologies 2844 user manual Shock Hazard Warning

SHOCK HAZARD WARNING:

The printer and power supply should never be operated in a location where either one can get wet. Personal injury could result.

MEDIA AND RIBBON WARNING:

Always use high quality, approved labels, tags and ribbons. If adhesive backed labels are used that DO NOT lay flat on the backing liner, the exposed edges may stick to the label guides and rollers inside the printer, causing the label to peel off from the liner and jam the printer. Permanent damage to the print head may result if a non-approved ribbon is used as it may be wound incorrectly for the printer or contain chemicals corrosive to the print head. Approved supplies can be ordered from your dealer.

RELOADING HINT:

If labels or ribbon run out while printing, DO NOT turn the power switch OFF (0) while reloading or data loss may result. The printer automatically restarts after you load a new label or ribbon roll.

STATIC DISCHARGE:

The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the print head or electronic components used in this device. DO NOT TOUCH the print head or the electronic components under the top cover.

THERMAL PRINTING:

The print head becomes hot while printing. To protect from damaging the print head and risk of personal injury, avoid touching the print head. Use only the cleaning pen to perform maintenance.
