Handling Precautions

When moisture has condensed in the printer

The formation of water droplets inside the printer is referred to as condensation. Condensation occurs in the following situations.

When the room in which the printer is located is heated rapidly

When cold air (from an air-conditioner, etc.) blows directly onto the printer

When the printer is moved from a location of low humidity to a location of high humidity

When moisture has condensed in the printer, moisture will adhere to the paper, deteriorating print quality or causing paper jams. When moisture has condensed or is likely to condense, leave the printer on and wait until there is no possibility for condensation to occur.

Do not use solvents such as paint thinner or benzene when cleaning

Spraying the printer with insecticide or wiping with paint thinner or benzene may deteriorate or discolor the printer cabinet. When the printer cabinet has become dirty, wipe with a soft cloth. When soiling is particularly heavy, dampen a soft cloth with water or neutral detergent diluted with water, and wipe off the dirt after wringing the cloth out firmly.

Do not allow the printer cabinet to be in contact with rubber or vinyl products for an extended period of time. This can cause discoloration or peeling of the coating

Extended contact with rubber, vinyl or plastic products can cause discoloring or peeling of the coating.

Operate the printer at least once every six months

Not operating the printer for a long period of time can impair printer function. Operate the printer at least once every six months.

Transporting when Moving, etc.

When transporting the printer, place the printer in the packaging materials and container in which it was packaged. When these are no longer available, package the printer with sufficient cushioning materials so that it is able to withstand shocks and impacts during transport.

Remove the paper cassette and ink cassette from the printer before transporting.
