4. Press down on both sides of the printer cover to close it firmly.
When you close the printer cover, make sure that it is closed on both sides.
5. Use the tear bar to cut the extra paper.
CAUTION
When the paper is jammed, be sure to open the printer cover before removing the
jammed paper.
Do not under any circumstances try to pull out the jammed paper forcefully while the
printer cover is closed. Doing so may damage parts of the printer.
Caution Symbol
This symbol is placed near the thermal head to indicate that it may be hot.
Never touch the thermal head immediately after the printer has been used.
Also, even when the thermal head is not hot, do not touch it, because static electricity
can damage the devices inside the thermal head.
WARNING
1) Do not touch the tear bar.
• There is a tear bar inside the paper outlet slot. Not only should you not put your hand
in the paper outlet slot while printing is in progress, never put your hand into the out-
let even when printing is not in progress.
• The paper cover can be opened when replacing the paper. However, since the tear bar
is on the inside of the paper cover, be careful not to place your face or hands too close
to the tear bar.
2) During and immediately after printing, the area around the thermal head is very hot.
Do not touch it, as you could be burned.
