Proper Usage and Handling

• Usage Location

Do not use near strong magnets or near devices that produce strong electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic radiation from devices such as TVs and game machines, and strong magnetic fields from devices such as speakers and large motors, may cause distortion in

printed images.

Use in a well-ventilated~level area.

Leave about 15 cm (6 in.) of clearance at the front and back of the devices and 10 cm (4 in.) of clearance on both sides. Be sure to leave clearance around the paper-handling slot (at the rear) so that paper has sufficient room to jut out from the slot during printing.

Place the printer so that the air vents on the back will not be blocked.

If the air vents blocked, the printer interior could heat up, causing the printer to temporarily stop.

Handling Precautions

Please avoid turning the printer'spower on and off needlessly as the printer initialization consumes ink: There may not be enough ink left for the allotted sheets in the

set.

Unplug the printer when you are not using it. But please note that you should plug in and run the printer at least once every six months to ensure that it remains functional.

Before transporting the printer, remove the paper and ink cassettes and close the paper cassette cover and the ink cassette cover. If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer,

print quality may deteriorate.

Pack the printer into an appropriate case for transport. If a case is not available, wrap it with cloth or other protective material to protect against scratches.

Never use volatile compounds or insecticides on the printer, and do not allow rubber or vinyl material to remain in prolonged contact with the printer. These materials may

cause deformation of the printer'scasing.

o Overheating

If the printer overheats, it will temporarily stop operating. This does not mean that the printer has malfunctioned. The printer will resume normal printing as soon as it cools down.

Temporary stoppages are most likely to occur in the following cases:

When printing continuously.

If the room is unusually warm.

If the air vents on the back of the printer are blocked or if ventilation is inadequate.
