4.1.1 Warnings

Before proceeding with any disassembly or assembly work, make absolutely sure of the following.

WA R „ The power switch is located on the control panel. Any time the printer is plugged into a power outlet, power is flowing through the PS board. Unless otherwise stated, always turn off the printer, wait several seconds, and then unplug the power cable from the outlet before servicing a printer.

„For safety reasons, the front cover position is automatically detected by the cover-open sensor which is an interlock switch. Do not block or modify this sensor.

„A lithium battery is installed on the MAIN Board of this printer. Be sure to observe the following instructions when servicing the battery:

„Keep the battery away from any metal or other batteries so that electrodes of the opposite polarity do not come in contact with each other.

„Do not heat the battery or put it near fire.

„Do not solder on any part of the battery. (Doing so may result in leakage of electrolyte from the battery, burning or explosion. The leakage may affect other devices close to the battery.)

„Do not charge the battery. (An explosion may be generated inside the battery, and cause burning or explosion.)

„Do not dismantle the battery. (The gas inside the battery may hurt your throat. Leakage, burning or explosion may also be resulted.)

„Do not install the battery in the wrong direction. (This may cause burning or explosion.)

„If ink gets on your hands, wash them thoroughly with soap and water. If ink gets in your eyes, rinse them immediately with water.

„If it is necessary to remove external printer parts while the printer is turned on, be very careful around movable or spinning parts such as the carriage and fans.

„Keep in mind that the carriage drive belt and cutter blade can be dangerous.
