PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION

•Do not use or store the equipment in a place exposed to fire, moisture, or direct sunshine, or in a place near a heater or thermal device where the prescribed operating temperature and humidity are not met, or in a place exposed to much oil, iron powder, or dust. The equipment may become out of order, emit smoke, or catch fire.

•Do not install or use the equipment in a place like a laboratory where chemical reactions are expected, or in a place where salt or gases are contained in the air. There is a danger of fire or electric shock.

•Install the printer on a flat, stable desk or table that is free from vibration, in a well-ventilated place.

•Do not install the printer at a location where its operation could be hindered.

•Do not place anything on the printer or leave small objects, like a clip or pin, around it. A foreign object could cause trouble if it gets inside.

•Do not use any sharp-pointed object, such as a pen, for example, to touch the operation panel of the printer. It could cause trouble.

•Do not use the equipment near a radio or TV receiver. Do not share the power from a plug socket a radio or TV receiver is connected to. It may cause a reception problem.

•Use the equipment only at the specified power supply, voltage and frequency. Otherwise, it may emit smoke and catch fire or cause other problems.

•Connect only the specified power source. Use of an unspecified power source could cause trouble or smoke/fire.

•Confirm that a plug socket used for connection has sufficient capacity.

•Avoid connecting a power cable to a plug socket shared by other devices or extending the wiring too far. It may result in the cable catching fire or a power outage. Also, do not step on or apply an excessive force (Pull, load) to the cable, and do not use the printer with such a force applied to it.

•Never connect a grounding cable (Frame ground) to a gas pipe. There is a danger of explosion. When connecting or disconnecting the grounding cable, be sure to disconnect the power cable and the power plug from the plug socket.

•When connecting/disconnecting the cables, be sure to turn off the power first, including the connected side, and then connect/disconnect them, holding a plug and a connector. Pulling the cable itself could cause it to snap or become damaged.

•Connect a power cable or a connector cable securely. If a reverse-polarity connection is made, internal elements may be broken or a mating device may be adversely affected.

•Use a shielding wire or twisted pair wire for a signal line, in order to minimize noise effect. Do not route the cable too long or connect it to a noisy device. Connection to a noisy device could cause erroneous printing due to corrupt data, and so on.

•Use the equipment in an environment where there is a plug socket near the main body and you can easily disconnect the power plug from it, to shut off the power.

•When the equipment will not be used for a long period of time, unplug it and remove the paper roll from it.

•When transporting the equipment, remove the paper roll from the paper holder.
