Care and storage
Protect against moisture condensation
Moisture condensation is water vapor in the air that becomes liquid, and collects on
the printer surface.
This phenomenon occurs under the following conditions.
The room in which the printer is placed is rapidly heated or cooled.
The printer is directly subjected to cool air, such as from an air conditioner.
The printer is moved from a cold place to a warm place.
Moisture in the air condenses on the paper, deteriorating print quality or causing
paper jams.
Under conditions where condensation has occurred or may occur, do not operate
the printer until it is dry or until there is no possibility that condensation will occur.
Do not spray on or allow volatile solvents to come in
contact with the printer
Spraying an insecticide near the printer, or wiping it with thinner or benzene for
example, may damage or discolor the printer cabinet.
Use a soft cloth to clean the outside of the printer cabinet. For difficult to remove
stains, dampen a soft cloth with water or a mild detergent diluted with water, and
wring out the cloth to remove as much of the moisture as possible before wiping the
outside of the cabinet.
Do not allow the printer to be in contact with rubber
or plastic products for an extended period of time
Deterioration and discoloration may occur if the printer is in contact with rubber or
plastic products for an extended period of time.
Operate the printer at least once every six months
If the printer is not used for an extended period of time, it may malfunction.
Operate the printer at least once every six months.
Carry the printer with both hands
When lifting or carrying the printer, use both hands.
Transport the printer carefully
When transporting the printer, place it in the original box with the original packing
material. If you don't have the original packaging, pack the printer with enough
cushioning material to absorb any impacts during transportation.
