Miscellaneous

Precautions

Safety

• Operate the unit using the power source specified in
"Specifications" (on page 43).
• Be careful not to damage the AC power cord by placing
or dropping heavy objects on it; it is dangerous to use the
unit with a damaged AC power cord.
• If you do not intend to use the unit for a long time,
disconnect the AC power cord.
• Unplug the AC power cord by grasping the plug, not the
cable itself.
• Do not disassemble the unit.
• Do not remove the cabinet. There is a danger of electric
shock from the internal parts.
• Be careful not to spill water or other liquids on the unit,
or to allow combustible or metallic material to enter the
cabinet. If used with foreign matter in the cabinet, the
unit is liable to fail, or present a risk of fire or electric
shock.
• If the unit malfunctions or if a foreign body falls into the
cabinet, disconnect the power immediately and consult
your Sony dealer.

Installation

Avoid placing the unit in a location subject to:
– mechanical vibration
– high humidity
– excessive dust
– direct or excessive sunlight
– extremely high or low temperatures
Ventilation holes are provided to prevent the unit from
overheating. Be careful not to obstruct them with other
units or by covering the unit with a cloth etc.
Condensation
• If the unit is subjected to wide and sudden changes in
temperature, such as when it is moved from a cold room
to a warm room or when it is left in a room with a heater
that tends to produce large amounts of moisture,
condensation may form inside the printer. In such cases
the printer will probably not work properly, and may
even develop a fault if you persist in using it. If moisture
condensation forms, turn off the power and allow the
printer to stand for at least one hour.
• If the film is subjected to wide and sudden changes in
temperature, condensation may form on the film in the
film tray. This will cause the printer to malfunction.

Precautions
Also, if the film is used in this state, spots are likely to
appear on the printout.
• To store a half-used package of film, replace the film in
its original packing and reseal the package. If possible,
before using sealed film, place it, in its sealed package,
in a warm room for several hours. Doing so prevents
condensation from forming when the film is removed
from its package.

Transporting the Unit

Before transporting the printer, remove the output tray,
remove any film sheets from the film tray, and then pack
the unit in the original packing material. Transporting the
unit with accessories still installed or with film in the film
tray may cause malfunction.
Note
If you move the unit with the casters for placing the unit
vertically (sold separately) attached, the unit may topple
and cause injury. Do not use the caster to move the unit.

Cleaning the Cabinet

Note
Be sure to turn the unit off by pressing the 1ON/
STANDBY switch on the front panel.
To clean the cabinet
• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft dry
cloth, or a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution.
• Do not use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or
benzine, which may damage the finish.

Maintenance

Perform the following maintenance regularly after every
500 printings.
• Replacing the cleaning roller
• Cleaning the thermal head
• Cleaning the fan filter
In addition to the above maintenance, regular maintenance
is required after every 5,000 printings. However, you
should ask your Sony dealer to perform this maintenance.
You can check the total number of prints using the Total
Prints item of the Information menu.
