PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
• Do not use or store the printer in a place exposed to fire, moisture, or direct
sunshine, or in a place near a heater or thermal device where the prescribed
operating temperature and humidity are not met, or in a place exposed to much oil,
iron powder, or dust. The printer may become out of order, emit smoke, or catch
fire.
• Do not install or use the printer in a place like a laboratory where chemical
reactions are expected, or in a place where salt or gases are contained in the air.
There is a danger of fire or electric shock.
• Install the printer on a flat, stable desk or table that is free from vibration, in a well-
ventilated place.
• Do not install the printer at a location where its operation could be hindered.
• Do not place anything on the printer or leave small objects, like a clip or pin, around
it. A foreign object could cause trouble if it gets inside.
• Do not use any sharp-pointed object, such as a pen, for example, to touch the
operation panel of the printer. It could cause trouble.
• Do not use the printer near a radio or TV receiver. Do not share the power from a
plug socket a radio or TV receiver is connected to. It may cause a reception
problem.
• Use the printer only at the specified power supply, voltage and frequency.
Otherwise, it may emit smoke and catch fire or cause other problems.
• Connect only the specified power source. Use of an unspecified power source
could cause trouble or smoke/fire.
• Confirm that a plug socket used for connection has sufficient capacity.
• Avoid connecting a power cable to a plug socket shared by other devices or
extending the wiring too far. It may result in the cable catching fire or a power
outage. Also, do not step on or apply an excessive force (Pull, load) to the cable,
and do not use the printer with such a force applied to it.
• Never connect a grounding cable (Frame ground) to a gas pipe. There is a danger
of explosion. When connecting or disconnecting the grounding cable, be sure to
disconnect the power cable and the power plug from the plug socket.
• When connecting/disconnecting the cables, be sure to turn off the power first,
including the connected side, and then connect/disconnect them, holding a plug
and a connector. Pulling the cable itself could cause it to snap or become
damaged.
• Connect a power cable or a connector cable securely. Avoid reversing the polarity
when connecting as internal elements may be broken or a mating device may be
adversely affected.
• Use a shielding wire or twisted pair wire for a signal line, in order to minimize noise
effect. Do not route the cable too long or connect it to a noisy device. Connection
to a noisy device could cause erroneous printing due to corrupt data, and so on.
• Use the printer in an environment where there is a plug socket near the main body
and you can easily disconnect the power plug from it, to shut off the power.
• When the printer will not be used for a long period of time, unplug it and remove
the paper roll from it.
• When transporting the printer, remove the paper roll from the paper holder.
