CAUTIONS
If you notice smoke or a peculiar smell coming from
the printer, shut it down and unplug it
IMMEDIATELY. Use of the
printer under these
conditions could lead to fire
or electric shock. Contact
your JVC dealer. DO NOT
attempt to repair the
malfunction yourself.
DO NOT attempt to insert foreign objects into the
printer, as this can lead to
electric shock or fire. If an
object other than print paper
is accidentally inserted, shut
the printer down, unplug it
and contact your JVC dealer.
Exercise caution when moving the printer. If you
drop the unit, do not attempt
to use it. If during use you
notice that the cabinet is
damaged, shut the printer
down, unplug it and contact
your JVC dealer. Use of the
printer under these conditions
can lead to fire or electric
shock.
DO NOT place heavy objects on the printer’s
power cord, or leave the cord near any heat-
generating appliance, as this can
damage the cord. Avoid
excessive pulling or twisting of
the power cord. If the power
cord becomes cut or otherwise
damaged, contact your JVC
dealer. When unplugging the
printer, DO NOT pull on the
cord. Hold the plug itself and
remove it from the AC outlet.
Use of the printer with a
damaged power cord can lead
to fire, electric shock and unit
malfunctions.
DO NOT remove the cover and attempt to repair or
modify the printer. There are
high-voltage components
within the unit, and the risk
of electric shock and unit
malfunctions exists. If a
problem occurs, contact your
JVC dealer.
Make sure that you have easy access to the AC
outlet which the printer
is plugged into so that it
can be immediately
unplugged in case of
emergency. Connect the
printer power plug to a
different AC outlet from
the TV and VCR.
ABOUT THERMAL HEADS
•The thermal heads, necessary for printing, are located
within the unit. The heads can become extremely
warm. To prevent possible burns and injuries, do not
touch the thermal heads.
•When the printer is used for extended periods, the
thermal heads experience wear and tear just like VCR
heads. As the thermal heads become worn, print
quality will gradually decrease. When you notice a
decline in quality, it is possible that the heads may
need to be replaced. Consult your JVC dealer.
MOISTURE CONDENSATION
If condensation occurs inside the printer, it may adhere
to print paper during printing, causing poor quality
prints and paper jams. If you think condensation may
exist within the unit, let the unit sit for at least 2 hours
(with the power on) to dry sufficiently. If paper is stuck
within the unit, remove it before turning the power on.
Unused print paper subjected to moisture should not
be used for printing.
•Condensation may occur in the following situations:
1)In a room when the heater suddenly comes on;
2)In the direct path of cool air from an air
conditioner;
3)When the unit is moved from a cool place to a
warm place.
DUST
Due to dust or lint adhering to print paper, or to
extreme variations in temperature, a small degree of
color smearing or lines may be visible in prints.
Failure to heed the following precautions may
result in damage to the printer.
1. DO NOT place the printer . . .
...in an environment prone to extreme temperatures
or humidity.
...in direct sunlight.
...in a dusty environment.
...in an environment where strong magnetic fields
are generated.
...on a surface that is unstable or subject to
vibration.
2. DO NOT block the printer’s ventilation openings.
3. DO NOT place heavy objects on the printer.
4. DO NOT place anything which might spill on top of
the printer.
5. AVOID violent shocks to the printer during
transport.
CAUTION:
Changes or modifications not approved by JVC
could void user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
