2. PRINTER SETUP

2.1 Installation

To insure the best operating environment and to assure the safety of the
operator and equipment, please observe the following precautions.
Operate the printer on a stable, level surface in a location free from
•
excessive humidity, high temperature, dust, vibration and direct
sunlight.
Keep your work environment static free. Static discharge can cause
•
damage to delicate internal components.
Make sure the printer is connected to a clean source of AC power and
•
no other high-voltage devices, that may cause line noise interference,
are connected to the same mains.
Assure that the printer is connected to the AC mains with a three-
•
prong power cable that has the proper ground (earth) connection.
Do not operate the printer with the cover open. Be careful not to
•
allow fingers or articles of clothing to get caught in any of the
moving parts, especially the optional cutter mechanism.
For best results, and longer printer life, use only Oki Data
•
recommended media and ribbons.
Store the media and ribbons in accordance with their specifications.
•
This printer mechanism contains high-voltage components; therefore
•
you should never remove any of the covers of the machine as you
may receive an electrical shock. Additionally, the printer contains
many delicate components that may be damaged if accessed by
unauthorised personnel.
Clean the outside of the printer with a clean, dry cloth or a clean cloth
•
slightly dampened with a mild detergent solution.
Use caution when cleaning the thermal print head as it will become
•
very hot while printing. Wait until it has had time to cool before
cleaning. Use only the Oki Data recommended print head cleaner to
clean the print head.
Do not turn off the printer power or remove the power plug while the
•
printer is printing or while the ON LINE lamp is flashing.
