WARNING
● Never handle the printer in the manners described below; otherwise, it may be
damaged, get out of order or overheated, possibly causing smoke, fire or electric
shock.
If the printer is damaged or breaks down, be sure to turn off the power, disconnect
the power plug from the wall outlet, and contact your CITIZEN SYSTEMS dealer.
• Do not allow the printer to be subjected to any strong impact or shock, such as
stamping, hitting, dropping, and the like.
• Install the printer in a well-ventilated place. Do not use the printer in such a manner
that its ventilation slots are blocked.
• Do not install the printer in a place like a laboratory where chemical reactions are
expected, or in a place where saltish gases are present in the atmosphere.
• Use the printer only on the specified voltage and frequency.
• Do not connect/disconnect the power cord or data cable by holding the cable. Do
not pull or carry the printer in such a manner that undesirable force is applied to
the cables.
• Do not drop or insert any foreign substances, such as paper clips or pins, into the
printer.
• Do not connect the printer to an electrical outlet shared by other devices.
• Do not spill any liquid on or spray any chemical-containing liquid over the printer.
If any liquid is spilled on the printer, turn it off, disconnect the power cord from the

PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
● Do not use or store the printer in a place exposed to heat of fire, moisture or direct
sunlight, or in a place where the prescribed operating temperature and humidity are
not met, or in a place exposed to oily mist, iron powder or dust; otherwise, the printer
may get out of order, emit smoke or catch fire.
● Do not install the printer in a place like a laboratory where chemical reactions are
expected, or in a place where saltish gases are present in the atmosphere; otherwise,
there may occur a danger of fire or electric shock.
● Install the printer on a sturdy and good ventilation place and free from any vibration.
(Be careful not to block the ventilation slots of the printer.)
● Do not put any object on the printer, or this may cause a trouble.
● Do not use the printer near a radio or television receiver. Avoid sharing an electrical
outlet with a radio or television receiver, or this may cause a reception problem.
● Use the printer only on the specified voltage and frequency; otherwise it may emit
smoke, catch fire or cause other problems.
● Confirm that the wall outlet used for printer connection has sufficient electrical
capacity.
● Avoid sharing a single electrical outlet with other devices; otherwise, the electrical
capacity may be exceeded, causing the outlet to overheat or the power supply to be
shut down. Also, do not stamp or put any object on the cables.
● Never connect the grounding cable to a gas pipe, or this may lead to a danger of
explosion. Before connecting or disconnecting the grounding cable, be sure to
disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.
● Be sure to turn off the power of the printer and the host computer connected before
connecting or disconnecting the cables; always hold both plug and cable. Do not
pull or carry the printer in such a manner that an undesirable load is applied to the
cables.
● Connect the connector cables correctly and securely. Especially, if a connection is
made with the polarity reversed, internal elements inside the printer may be damaged
or the host computer connected may be adversely affected.
● Use shielding wires or twist paired wires for signal lines in order to minimize the
effects from noise. Avoid connecting to a device that is likely to generate much
noise.
● Install and use the printer in a place provided with a suitable wall outlet nearby so
that you can immediately disconnect the power plug to shut off the power to the
printer if an abnormal condition occurs.
● When transporting the equipment, remove the paper roll from it.

PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING
Do not handle the equipment in the following manners, because problems may result.
● Do not print when there is no recording paper or ink ribbon set in the equipment.
● Be careful not to drop foreign substances, such as clips, pins, and screws, into the
equipment.
● Do not spill any liquid or spray any chemical-containing liquid over the equipment.
● Do not stamp on, drop, hit, or give a strong shock to the equipment.
● Never use a pointed object, such as a pen, to operate the operation panel.
● Do not use Scotch tape to fasten paper together for continuous use.
● Never pull the set paper forcibly.
● Replace the ink ribbon before it is broken by overuse. Do not refill the ink ribbon.
● Leaving the printer unused for a long time with a ribbon cassette loaded may cause
smudged printing. Continuous printing at low temperature may cause thin printing
due to the characteristic of ink.
● Do not deliver the equipment with a ribbon cassette loaded.
To Prevent Injury and Spreading of Damage
● Do not touch the printing part of the print head.
● While the equipment power is on, do not touch the moving parts, such as a cutter
and gear, or electric parts inside the equipment.
● Be careful to avoid bodily injure or damaging other objects with an edge of sheet
metal.
● Should any error occur while operating the equipment, stop using it immediately,
disconnect the power plug from the plug socket, and then contact your CITIZEN
SYSTEMS dealer.
