Do not use or store the equipment in a place exposed to fire, moisture, or direct sunshine,

or in a place near a heater or thermal device where the prescribed operating temperature and humidity are not met, or in a place exposed to much oil, iron powder, or dust. T he equipment may become out of order, emit smoke, or catch fire. Do not install or use the equipment in a place like a laboratory where chemical reactions

are expected, or in a place where salt or gases are contained in the air. There is a danger of fire or electric shock. Install the printer on a flat, stable desk or table that is free from vibration, in a well-

ventilated place. Do not install the printer at a location where its operation could be hindered.

Do not place anything on the pri nt er or le ave small objects, like a cli p or pin, around it. A

foreign object could ca use t r ouble if it gets inside . Do not use any sharp-pointed object, such as a pen, for example, to touch the operation

panel of the printer. It could cause trouble. Do not use the equipment ne ar a radio o r TV recei ver. Do not share the p ow er from a plug

socket a radio or TV receiver is connected to. It may cause a reception problem. Use the equipment only at the specified power supply, voltage and frequency. Otherwise,

it may emit smoke and catch fire or cause other problems. Connect only the specified power source. Use of an unspecified power source could cause

trouble or smoke/fire. Confirm that a plug sock et used for connection has sufficient capacity .

Avoid connecting a power cable to a plug socket shared by other devices or extending the

wiring too far. It may result in the cable catching fire or a power outage. Also, do not step on or apply an excessive force (Pull, load) to the cable, and do not use the printer with such a force appl ied to it. Never connect a grounding cable (Frame ground) to a gas pipe. There is a danger of

explosion. When connecting or disconnecting the g rounding cable, be sure to disconnect the power cable and the power plug from the plug socket. When connecting/disconnect ing the cab les , be sure t o turn off the power first, including the

connected side, and then connect/disconnect them, holding a plug and a connector. Pulling the cable itself could cause it to snap or b e com e damaged. Connect a power cable or a connector cable securely. If a reverse-polarity connection is

made, internal elements may be broken or a mating device may be adver se ly affected. Use a shielding wire or twist ed pair w ire f or a sign a l line , in or der t o min imiz e no ise eff ect.

Do not route the cable too long or co nnect it to a noisy d evice . Connection to a no isy device could cause erroneous printing due to corrupt data, and so on. Use the equipment in a n en v ironm e nt wher e there is a plug socket near the ma in body an d

you can easily di sconnect the power plug from it, to shut off the power. When the equipment will not be used for a long period of time, unplug it and remove the

paper roll from it. When transporting the equipment, remove the paper roll from the paper holder.

(1) Types of paper

The red and black two-color thermal paper changes its colors by controlling the energy applied to the thermal head. It is larg ely divided into two types, depending on the color development orde r. Select either of them to suit your application.

1. Red-based two-color thermal paper (PB670: MITSUBISHI PAPER MILLS)

2. Black- based two-color thermal paper (735FA: RICOH)

(2) High-energy printing rate

High-energy print (black print on red-based paper, or red print on black-based paper) required the application of high energy to the thermal head. To protect the service life of the thermal head, use the following printing rate as a guideline; use the fixed split (6-split) method.

1. Continuous print of high-energy print only : 6 % or less

2. Mixed continuous print of low-energy and high-energy print

3. Printing rate per dot line : 50 % or less

Depending on the set printing density, the paper used, or the printing characters, a sufficient change of color tone may not be obtained even by highenergy print. (Characters such as [, !, ', (, i, -, font B with small dot matrix) It is recommended to use in such printing patterns as double-width characters, doubleheight characters, double-width and -height characters.

CCCCAAAAUUUUTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS

1) If high-energy print is continuously carried out at a high operating ambient temperature, the thermal head will become hot more quickly and the protective circuit will be activated, to stop printing more frequently . Fully consider the working temperature and printing rate.

2) If a bar code is printed on the 2-color paper, both colors may appear in normal print and highenergy print, or the bar code may not be correctly read by a bar code reader . Be fully aware of this when using the 2-color paper.

3) Do not perform high-energy print on the single-color paper (regular thermal paper). It may deteriorate the service life of the thermal head or the printing quality.

4) For setting, see Commands ( DC3: Switching the Red/Black Printing).
