  • Page 66 A. MISCELLANEOUS NOTES 1. Printer mechanism handing 1) Do not pull the paper out when the cover is closed. 2) Because the thermal elements of the print head and driver ICs are easy to break, so do not touch them with any metal objects. 3) Since the areas around the print head become very hot during and just after printing, do not touch them.
  • Page 67 7) If the surface of thermal paper is scratched with a hard metal object such as a nail, the paper may become discolored. - Notes on thermal paper storage Since color development begins at 70 C (158 F), thermal paper should be protected from high temperature, humidity, and light, both before and after printing.
