• Handling Precautions of the Roll Paper
The paper is a thermalsensible paper that changes color with the application of heat.
Note the following points.
• Storage Precautions
The paper starts changing color at around 70°C. It is affected by heat, humidity,
light, and chemicals regardless of whether the paper has been used of not.
• Store the paper rolls in a cool, dry, and dark place.
• After opening the package, use it quickly.
• If the paper is left in contact with plastic film containing plasticizers (such as a
vinyl chloride film or Scotch tape) for an extended time, the paper will lose some
of its ability to reproduce color. If you are going to store the paper in a folder, for
example, use a folder made of paper stock or polypropylene.
• When using glue on the paper, do not use glue containing organic solvents such
as alcohol or ether, as they will change the color of the paper.
• For prolonged storage, we suggest you copy the roll chart. Due to the
characteristics of the thermalsensible paper, it may lose color over time.
• Handling Precautions
• Use only genuine paper rolls provided by YOKOGAWA.
• Touching the paper with sweaty hands can leave finger prints or blur the printing.
• Rubbing the surface with a hard object can cause the paper to change color due
to the heat caused by friction.
• If chemicals, oil, or other liquids come in contact with the paper, the paper may
change color or the printing may fade.
Note
•
If you open the printer cover immediately after you cut the roll paper, repeat steps 5 to 7.
•
After loading the roll paper and closing the printer cover, feed the paper to check that the
paper is being fed correctly. If the paper is not being fed evenly, repeat steps 1 to 7.
•
If you reverse the direction in which the roll paper is placed, the printer head does not make
contact with the thermal-sensitive surface. If this happens, nothing may be printed, or the
paper may not feed properly. Be sure to load the roll paper in the correct direction in the
holder.
