9. CARE/HANDLING OF THE MEDIA

CAUTION!

Be sure to read carefully and understand the Supply Manual. Use only media that meets specified requirements. Use of non-specified media may shorten the head life and result in problems with bar code readability or print quality. All media should be handled with care to avoid any damage to the media or printer. Read the following guideline carefully.

Do not store the media for longer than the manufactures recommended shelf life.

Store media rolls on the flat end, do 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 the extra abrasion from the 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 temperature, 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 Cl600 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 (CaCO3) and kaolin (Al2O3, 2SiO2, 2H2O).

For further information please contact your local distributor or your media manufacturer.
