Loading the Paper and Ink Ribbon
After several sheets of paper are fed out, the printer
is ready to print.
If you open the front door during operation
When you open the front door after starting to use the
printer just after loading the paper and ink ribbon, the tip
of the paper may protrude. In that case, push the paper
back so that the length of the paper protruding is less
than 5 cm, then close the front door.
If you close the door with the paper protruding, the
printed paper will not be ejected correctly. This causes
paper jamming.
Push the paper
back so that the
length of the
paper protruding
is less than 5 cm
(2 inches).
Note
Be careful not to touch the printing surface of the paper
when pushing it back. Sweat or dust from your hands
may cause a deterioration in the quality of the printout.
Notes on storage
• Avoid placing the printer where subject to:
high temperatures,
high humidity or dust,
direct sunlight.
• After opening the bag, use the ribbon and the paper as
soon as possible.
• When storing after partial use, put the ribbon and the
paper back in their respective bags.
