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. 8. Set the Scrap Box to the printer. ・ When the scrap box is removed, do not insert your fingers in the cutter at the top.
