10. CARE/HANDLING OF THE MEDIA AND RIBBON

CAUTION:

Be sure to read carefully and understand the Supply Manual. Use only media and ribbon which meet specified requirements. Use of non-specified media and ribbon may shorten the head life and result in problems with bar code readability or print quality. All media and ribbon should be handled with care to avoid any damage to the media, ribbon or printer. Read the following guideline carefully.

∙Do not store the media and ribbon for longer than the manufactures recommended shelf life.

∙Store media rolls on the flat end, do not store them on the curved sides as this might flatten that side causing erratic media advance and poor print quality.

∙Store the media in plastic bags and always reseal after opening. Unprotected media can get dirty and the extra abrasion from the dust and dirt particles will shorten the print head life.

∙Store the media and ribbon in a cool, dry place. Avoid areas where they would be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature, high humidity, dust or gas.

∙The thermal paper used for direct thermal printing must not have the specifications which exceed Na+ 800 ppm, K+ 250 ppm and CL- 500 ppm.

∙Some ink used on pre-printed labels may contain ingredients which shorten the print head’s product life. Do not use labels pre-printed with ink which contain hard substances such as carbonic calcium (CaCO3) and kaolin (Al2O3, 2SiO2, 2H2O).
