INSTALLATION

Remove the M10e from its packing container. The Top Cover is shipped unattached in a

Careful consideration must be given when selecting the location of the printer, especially to
environmental considerations. To obtain optimum results from the M10e, always try to avoid
operation locations influenced by:
• Direct or bright sunlight, as this will make the label sensor less responsive and may
cause the label to be sensed incorrectly.
• Locations which have extremes of temperature, as this can create electrical problems on
the circuits within the printer.
• The installed location of the printer should ideally be in areas free from dust, humidity
and sudden vibrations.
CONSUMABLES
Always use SATO carbon ribbons or equivalent in the thermal transfer models. The use of
incorrect materials may cause malfunctions of the printer and void the warranty.
