Improper connection could cause    electric shock or fire. ・  Avoid overstressing outlets and using extension cords.  The outlet could overheat and     cause a fire. ・  Do not damage, destroy, bundle, or alter the power cord.  Also, placing heavy objects on, pulling on, or bending the cord excessively can damage it, and could cause a fire. ・  Do not set the printer up in places with salinity or corrosive gases in the air.  This could cause a fire. ・  Do not block the vents.  Heat could build up in the printer and cause a malfunction or   fire. ・  Do not stand on or place heavy objects on the printer.  Also, do not use excessive force  on the buttons, switches, terminals, etc.  This could break the printer and cause injury to the user or others. ・  Store the bag for the printer out of the reach of children.  It could cause suffocation if   placed over the head. ・  Be careful to avoid injury or damages from the edges in the printer. ・  Do not use this printer for applications where malfunction could be life-threatening (such   as medical, space, aeronautic, or other applications that require extreme reliability).                               ・  The printer weighs approximately 14 kg (31 lbs).  When moving it, lift in a way that     avoids excessive physical stress.  Lifting recklessly or dropping the printer could cause   injury. ・  Locate the printer as close to an outlet as possible, and allow easy access to unplug the   power cord in case of problems. ・  If there is dust on the plug, clean it off thoroughly.  It could cause electric shock or a   short-out. ・  If metal objects or liquids have fallen into the printer, and there is smoke, a strange odor, or any other apparent abnormality, immediately turn the power OFF, and unplug the      power cord.  Then contact a service representative.  Do not continue using the printer if  it is not operating properly.

  5Cautions for Set-up                   ・ Prior to operation, read “For Safe Operation” carefully and observe the rules therein. ・ Use care when moving the printer. Never try carrying the printer alone. Dropping it could cause injury or damage to other property. ・  Do not use or store the printer near fire, excessive moisture, in direct sunlight, near an air conditioner or heater, or any other source of unusually high or low temperature or humidity, or excessive dust. ・  Do not place the printer where chemical reactions occur, such as in a laboratory. ・  Do not set up the printer where there is salinity or corrosive gas in the air. ・  The printer must sit on a firm, level surface where there is ample ventilation.   ・  Do not put anything on the top of the printer. ・  Do not place the printer near a radio or television, and do not use the same wall outlet for the printer and radio or television. Radio or television reception could be adversely affected. ・  Do not use a power voltage or frequency other than those specified. ・  Do not put anything on the power cord or step on it. ・  Do not drag or carry the printer by the power cord or USB cable. ・  Avoid plugging the power cord into an outlet with many loads. ・  Do not bundle the power cord. ・  Always grip the plug housing, not the cord, to plug/unplug the power cord. ・ Make certain the power is turned off before connecting/disconnecting the USB cable. ・  Avoid lengthening the signal cable or connecting it to any noise-producing device.  If it is unavoidable, use a shielded cable or twisted pair for each signal. ・  Place the printer near the outlet where the power cord can be unplugged easily to shut off power. ・ Use an AC outlet that accepts a three-pronged plug. Otherwise, there may be danger of electric shock. ・  Use the appropriate specified cord set. Only use items that are certified safe according to the standards of the country where they are to be used

If the mechanism unit is closed without the scrap box attached, there will be a “No Scrap Box Error”, and the LED will flash (red).                      Supply Take Up Set here  Supply side・  The printer will not operate without the scrap box attached. ・  When the scrap box is removed, do not insert your fingers in the cutter at the top.    They could becut or severed. ・  As prints are cut, the scrap box fills with scrap paper.   Be sure to empty it when you change thepaper and ribbon.    If it becomes over-filled with scraps, it could cause problems with the printer. EnlargedCAUTION

However, if the power is turned ON after the paper is set, it won’t run the initialization. By running initialization, the dirty outer layer of paper is cut off.          *In order to facilitate media color adjustment, media type recognition, and print quantity management, an IC chip is built into the ink ribbon. Media without an IC chip, which has not been evaluated and cleared, may not function properly. (If correct data cannot be read from the IC chip, an alarm will sound.    In this case, in order to protect the printer, it will lower the concentration for printing.) *Please change the media as a set, because the IC chip for each ribbon has unique information.  Otherwise, errors could occur. *If different width media (for example L-size and PC-size) are used on the same printer, problems with the print quality could arise.    Therefore, it is preferable not to mix the use of different width media on one printer.                                 ・  Change the media as a set, to avoid other problems later. CAUTION
