General Safety Information

Before installing and using the printer, please read the following items carefully.
1. Safety instructions
Warning: Do not touch the cutter of the printer.
Warning: The print head is a thermal element and it is at a high temperature during printing or
just after operation, therefore do not touch it or its peripherals for reasons of safety.
Warning: The print head is an ESD-sensitive device. To avoid damage, do not touch either its
printing parts or connecting parts.
2. Caution
1) Install the printer on a flat and stable place.
2) Reserve adequate space around the printer so that convenient operation and maintenance can
be performed.
3) Keep the printer away from water source, and avoid direct exposure to sun light, strong light
and heat of fire.
4) Do not use or store the printer in a place exposed to high temperature, moisture and serious
pollution.
5) Do not place the printer on a place exposed to vibration or impact.
6) No dew condensation is allowed to the printer. In case of such condensation, do not turn on
the power until it has completely evaporated.
7) Connect the DC adapter to an appropriate grounding outlet. Avoid sharing a single electrical
with large power motors and other devices that may cause the fluctuation in voltage.
8) Disconnect the DC adapter when the printer is not used for a long time.
9) Do not let the water or electric materials (like metal) go into the printer. If this happens, turn off
the power immediately.
10) Do not allow the printer to start printing when there is no recording paper installed; otherwise
the print head and platen roller will be seriously damaged.
11) To ensure the print quality and normal lifetime, use recommended or good quality paper.
12) Shut down the printer when connecting or disconnecting interfaces connectors to avoid
damage to the control board.
13) Set the print darkness to a lower grade as long as the print quality is acceptable. This will help
to keep the print head durable.
14) The printer should only be disassembled or repaired by a technician, who is certified by the
manufacturer.
15) Keep this manual safe and at hand for ready reference.
Caution: The following content about cutter only applies to printers with cutter.
