WARNING !
Never handle the equipment in the following manners, as it may break, become out of order, or overheat
causing smoke and resulting in fire or electric shock.
If the equipment is used in an abnormal condition, such as when broken, then problems, smoke emission,
abnormal odor/noise, and fire can result. If an abnormal condition exists, be sure to turn off the power,
disconnect the power plug from a plug socket, and contact our dealer. Never repair the equipment on your
own - it is very dangerous.
• Do not allow the equipment to receive a strong impact or shock, such as kicking, stomping, hitting,
dropping, and the like.
• Install the equipment in a well-ventilated place. Do not use it in such a manner that its ventilation port will
be blocked.
• Do not install 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.
• Do not connect/disconnect a power cord or a data cable, while holding the cable. Do not pull, install, use, or
carry the equipment in such a manner that force will be applied to the cables.
• Do not drop or insert any foreign substances, such as clips or pins, into the equipment.
• Do not spill any liquid or spray any chemical-containing liquid over the equipment. If any liquid is spilled
on it, turn off the power, disconnect the power cable and power cord from the plug socket, and so on, a nd
contact our dealer.
• Do not disassemble or remodel the equipment. Negligence of this may cause fire or electric shock.
• Should you drop or break this AC adapter by any chance, unplug it immediately and contact our office.
Using it in that condition may result in fire or electric shock.
• Should water enter inside the equipment by any chance, unplug it and contact our offic e. Using it in that
condition may result in fire or electric shock.
• Use the equipment only with the specified commercial power supply. Negligence of this may result in fire,
electric shock, or problems.
• Do not damage, break, process, bend/pull by force, twist, or bundle an AC adapter cord. Also, do not put a
heavy substance on it or heat it. The AC adapter could be broken, resulting in fire, electric shock, or trouble.
If the AC adapter cord is damaged, contact our office.
• Do not connect/disconnect the AC adapter with wet hands. It may result in electric shock or other problems.
• Do not overload a single electrical outlet, using a table tap or a current tap socket. It may result in fire or

PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
• Do not use or store the equipment in a place exposed to fire, moisture, or direct sunlight, or in a place near a
heater or a thermal device where the prescribed operating temperature and humidity are not met, or in a
place exposed to much oil, iron powder, or dust. The e quipment may become out of order, emit smoke, or
catch fire.
• Do not install 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.
• Do not put any object on the printer. It may cause trouble.
• Do not use the equipment near a radio or TV receiver. Do not share the power 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 voltage and frequency. Otherwise, it may emit smoke and catch fire
or cause other problems.
• Confirm that a plug socket used for connection has sufficient capacity.
• Do not overload a single electrical outlet in connecting the power cable. It may result in the cable catching
fire or a power outage. Also, do not stamp or put any object on the cable.
• Never connect a grounding cable to a gas pipe. There is a danger of explosion. When connecting or
disconnecting the grounding cable, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the plug socket.
• When connecting/disconnecting the cables, be sure to turn off the power first, including the connected side,
and then connect/disconnect them, holding a plug and a connector. Do not pull or carry the equipment with
a load applied to the cable.
• Connect a connector cable securely. If a reverse-polarity connection is made, internal elements may be
broken or a mating device may be adversely affected.
• Use a shielding wire or twisted pair wire for a signal line, in order to minimize noise effect. Avoid
connecting to a device that is likely to generate noise.
• When a drawer kick connector is provided, do not connect any device other than the prescribed solenoid
specifications. Negligence of this could cause trouble.
• Use the equipment in a n environment where there is a plug socket near the main body and you can easily
disconnect 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.
• When transporting the equipment, remove the rolled paper from it.
• Install the equipment on a flat, stable desk in a well-ventilated place free from vibrations. (Do not block the
ventilation port.)
