●Do not use or store the printer in a place exposed to heat of fire, moisture or direct
sunlight, or in a place where the prescribed operating temperature and humidity are
not met, or in a place exposed to oily mist, iron powder or dust; otherwise, the printer
may get out of order, emit smoke or catch fire.
●Do not install the printer in a place like a laboratory where chemical reactions are
expected, or in a place where saltish gases are present in the atmosphere; otherwise,
there may occur a danger of fire or electric shock.
●Install the printer on a sturdy and good ventilation place and free from any vibration.
(Be careful not to block the ventilation slots of the printer.)
●Do not put any object on the printer, or this may cause a trouble.
●Do not use the printer near a radio or television receiver. Avoid sharing an electrical
outlet with a radio or television receiver, or this may cause a reception problem.
●Use the printer only on the specified voltage and frequency; otherwise it may emit
smoke, catch fire or cause other problems.
●Confirm that the wall outlet used for printer connection has sufficient electrical
capacity.
●Avoid sharing a single electrical outlet with other devices; otherwise, the electrical
capacity may be exceeded, causing the outlet to overheat or the power supply to be
shut down. Also, do not stamp or put any object on the cables.
●Never connect the grounding cable to a gas pipe, or this may lead to a danger of
explosion. Before connecting or disconnecting the grounding cable, be sure to
disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.
●Be sure to turn off the power of the printer and the host computer connected before
connecting or disconnecting the cables; always hold both plug and cable. Do not
pull or carry the printer in such a manner that an undesirable load is applied to the
cables.
●Connect the connector cables correctly and securely. Especially, if a connection is
made with the polarity reversed, internal elements inside the printer may be damaged
or the host computer connected may be adversely affected.
●Use shielding wires or twist paired wires for signal lines in order to minimize the
effects from noise. Avoid connecting to a device that is likely to generate much
noise.
●Install and use the printer in a place provided with a suitable wall outlet nearby so
that you can immediately disconnect the power plug to shut off the power to the
printer if an abnormal condition occurs.
●When transporting the equipment, remove the paper roll from it.
