Please insert the paper referring to the paper width guide shown below.
It’s recommended to insert the paper after taking up any slack on the roll fo
r
easier setting.
CITIZEN SYSTEMS JAPAN CO.,LTD.

4. Set the ribbon in the printer
* Paying attention to the ribbon surface for front & back, set the supply and uptake ribbon reels as
shown below.
* Remove any ribbon slack by turning the ribbon uptake side in the direction of the arrow approx. 5
times.
5. Close the front cover.
* When the front cover is closed, the
paper initialization process will be carried out
except in the case when the printer is
turned on after paper setting
(in that case, paper initialization is not carried out).
* There is a IC tag implemented in the ribbon and a detector in the printer for performing color
offset of media lot, detecting of media type and managing of print counter, to be communicated
between host computer (PC).
If any other media with no IC tag or a different tag is set, normal print process may not be
possible. For details, please contact your supplier.
Ribbon winding direction
During the paper initialization process, outside of roll paper with dust or finger prints is
removed by outputting 4 sheets of non printed paper.
The front side of the printer fron
t
is for ribbon supply, and the bac
k
side is for ribbon uptake.
Ribbon
supply side
(BLUE)
Ribbon
uptake side
(RED)
Please set the reels as
shown by color.
If different types of media like 2L-Size and Post Card or others are used in the same printer,
quality problems in the printed image will arise.
So as a rule, please do not use different types of media in the same printer.
But if for some reason different types of media must be used, first turn the printer off, take ou
t
the old media, and turn the printer on again before setting the new media.
* This way, when the front cover is closed, the paper initialization process will be carried out,
unless the printer is turned on after setting of the new media, in which case initializatio
n
won’t take place.

Please wipe off any powder, scraps, adhesives, etc, from the ribbon and/or paper which
are on the platen roller, using ethyl alcohol and a soft cloth.
Note: Only use ethyl alcohol. Never use benzene, thinner etc, since they may permeate the
resin.
* If any impressions appear regularly in the same place on the prints, or if there are marks on
the back (white side) in the same place on the prints, please clean the platen roller. As a
rule, clean the roller about once every 4000 sheets (10 rolls).

If there is powder, garbage, adhesive, etc, from the ribbon and/or paper on the print head,
wipe the head surface with a cleaning sheet approx. 5 times. (We suggest Japan Micro-coating
head polishing film GC#10000) Always switch off the printer before cleaning. As a rule, clean
the roller about once every 4000 sheets (10 rolls).
* Please do not clean the thermal print head frequently as far as print quality has no serious
problem.
Note: Never use alcohol, benzene, thinner,
or sand paper on the thermal head.
Please clean by turningthe platen roller.
- Before cleaning, always switch off the printer. Otherwise, there is possibility o
f
catching your finger in the head assembly and being injured.
- The print head will be hot just after printing. Please wait for the print head to
cooler off before beginning cleaning.

* Please clean the filter and bottom of the printer regularly.
1. Open the front cover by pressing the open button.
2. Remove the filter cover.
3. Clean the filter with a brush or vacuum. Also clean the bottom of the printer around the fan motor.
(Dust might accumulate on the paper and affect the print quality adversely)
Note: If the filter is washed using water, make sure the filter is thoroughly dried before
replacing it. Remaining water could cause the printer to malfunction.
4. Reset the filter in the opposite order from removing it. Push the filter cover until it clicks into
place.
- It’s important to keep the filter clean.
- If the filter is blocked or clogged, the temperature inside the printer will rise, and the thermal
head will overheat.
- If the thermal head overheats, the printer will stop, and the error LED will blink. In this
case, the printer will resume printing automatically after the temperature of the thermal head
drops enough for printing.
- A similar situation may occur when the print head is overheated by continuous high power
use such as when printing many black images.
