Handling Precautions
This section explains the precautions that you should take in handling the equipment.
Devices
•Do not apply excessive force to the paper cassette.
Force or impact on the cassette may result in paper jams or equipment damage.
•Do not switch the power on/off repeatedly when you do not intend to print.
The printer initialization process consumes ink and the equivalent of several pages could be wasted.
•Be careful not to spray the equipment with insecticides or volatile substances. In addition, do not store the equipment in contact with rubber or vinyl products for long periods of time.
These materials may cause deformation of the printer’s casing.
•Do not handle the ink cassettes with wet or sweaty hands.
•Do not touch the springs of the paper cassette. If the springs are bent or deformed, paper will not feed correctly into the printer.
Spring
•Do not place any foreign objects in the print output receptacle (on the top of the paper cassette).
•Do not touch the print side of the paper with your fingers.
Always hold the paper along the edges (outside the perforated border). Be sure that hands are dry before touching the paper. Sharp objects will scratch the paper surface. Keep the paper surface free from fingerprints, dust, water droplets, etc.
•Use a soluble ink pen to write on the paper sheets.
•Please avoid the following actions as they may result in color change, color fading or color bleeding.
•Sticking any type of adhesive tape onto the print surface.
•Allowing print surfaces to come into contact with vinyl materials.
•Applying alcohol or other volatile solvents to the print surface.
•Leaving print surfaces tightly pressed against any other surfaces or objects for prolonged periods.
Battery (CP730 Only)
•Keep the battery terminals clean at all times.
Dirty terminals result in a poor connection. Before recharging or using the battery, polish the terminals with a slender, soft tipped cotton swab.
•Do not carry or store the battery pack with metal objects with sharp edges, such as paper clips and pins. Always put the terminal cover on the battery pack’s terminal when carrying it or before storing it.
•Although the battery pack’s maximum operating range is 5 to 40 °C (41 to 104 °F), the optimal range is 10 to 30 °C (50 to 86 °F).
Battery performance will temporarily drop in cold environments, such as ski hills.
•If the battery status is low, the finished print may not be ejected into the print output receptacle completely.
If that occurs, replace the battery with a fully charged one or use the AC adapter.
