1.5. General Information
Hengstler GmbH accepts no liability for the safe operation of the TwinSide TS™ thermal
printer family unless Hengstler original products are used exclusively and the following
instructions and recommendations are heeded.
Caution: Pinch Hazard! The UPM of the TwinSide TS-56 represents a pinch hazard
when open. Care must be taken to avoid accidental injury when the UPM is in the
raised position, and when opening or closing the UPM. Take care to avoid closing
the UPM on your fingers, and from catching any loose hair or clothing in the printer
when closing the UPM. While the UPM has a strong spring detent to hold it in the
open position, it can close rapidly if knocked out of the open detent position. Use
care whenever the UPM is not in the operating position and avoid placing your fingers
inside the printer.
Caution: Burn Hazard!
position, the two thermal printheads are exposed. These printheads can become hot
enough to cause burns in a fraction of a second. Avoid burns by not touching these
printheads with your skin or body! Also, please note that the transfer of oils from your
skin to the thermal printhead when it is touched can shorten the life of the printhead.
If unauthorized persons perform any repairs or modifications to the printer
mechanism and the controller, HENGSTLER will not accept any liability and the
warranty shall be void.
Unapproved types of thermal paper may dramatically reduce the life of the print head
and may cause the guarantee to be voided. For pre-printed thermal paper make sure
that only appropriate inks are used. Detailed can be found in the Hengstler Paper
Specifications document D 691 024.
