i-STAT ALINITY PRINTER
For best results, observe the following precautions when using the i-STAT
Alinity printer.
DO:
• use only a rechargeable battery pack purchased from Abbott Point of Care.
• use only the power adapter and supply provided with the i-STAT Alinity
printer kit.
• use an i-STAT Alinity printer when attempting to print from an i-STAT
Alinity instrument.
• check with authorities for local, state, and/or national requirements for
disposal.
DO NOT:
• operate the printer without paper.
• pull paper through the paper mechanism. Damage to the printer can result.
Use the paper feed button.
• allow the power supply to become a trip hazard.
• place the printer in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.
• disturb the instrument or the printer until printing is complete, since this
will interrupt the printout. If printing is interrupted, realign the instrument
and the printer, or replace the instrument in the Base Station to resume
printing.
• place printers side by side. Doing so may cause instrument to printer
communication problems.
