  • Page 17 3-7-1. Removing the Tension Bar When using thermal paper roll, the tension bar unit may or may not be necessary, depending on the paper thickness, paper width, or the installation layout. If the tension bar unit is unnecessary, remove it in accordance with the procedure indicated below. The tension bar unit is unnecessary when using full-face thermal label paper roll or thermal label paper roll (tack label paper).
  • Page 18 Note: After using a paper roll with a width of . mm, do not change to a paper roll with a width of . or . mm. This is because the printer head has deteriorated as a result of a portion of the head having been in direct contact with the platen.
  • Page 19 • The printer cover can be opened when replacing the paper. However, since the cutter blade is on the inside of the printer cover, be careful not to place your face or hands too close to the cutter blade.
