Place the unit on a hard and level surface and keep a space between the unit and the walls to ensure proper ventilation. When putting the unit on the system rack, take a space between the unit and the back and sides of the rack.
SUITABLE LOCATIONS
Avoid shaky places or hot-springs areas where hydrogen sulfide and acidic ions are likely to be generated.
AVOID PLACES WITH HIGH HUMIDITY AND DUST
Do not place the unit at a high humidity and dusty locations. They can cause extensive damage to this unit. Avoid places where the unit is likely to be exposed to oily fumes and vapors.
AVOID PLACES LIKELY TO BE EXTREMELY HOT

PRECAUTIONS
FEATURES
CONNECTIONS
PLACES THE UNIT ON A HORIZONTAL LEVEL
The unit is likely to be affected if it is placed in slanted conditions or in an unstable places.
PROTECT AGAINST DEW FORMATION
In extremely cold regions, if the unit is moved quickly from an extremely cold place to warmer one, dew is likely to be formed. If dew is formed, printing is not possible.
OPERATING AMBIENT TEMPERATURE RANGE
The operating ambient temperature range is 5°C-40°C (41°F-104°F) and the humidity of 30%-80% RH. When using the unit on the system rack, be sure to keep this ambient temperature inside the rack. When the printer is used in a low temperature, it may take some time to start printing.
FOR LONG OPERATING LIFE
UNSUITABLE MATERIALS FOR THE DIGITAL COLOR PRINTER
Coat flaking and deformation are likely to occur if the unit is wiped with chemical dusters, benzine, thinner or any other solvent, if rubber or PVC items are left in contact with the unit for extended duration, or if the unit is sprayed with insecticide.
CARE OF THE CABINET
Unplug and clean with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild soap and water solution. Allow to dry completely before operating. Never use petroleum base solutions or abrasive cleaners.
HEAD ABRASION
The thermal head, like the video head, wears out. When it is abraded, it becomes hard to print out fine details of the picture. In such a case, it is necessary to replace the thermal head. Consult with the sales dealer for replacing the head.
