Installation
Screen Film
Markers,
Erasers and
Thermal
Transfer Film
• Do not install the unit where it may be exposed to direct sunlight, near heating equipment, or
near air-conditioning vents as this may cause stretching and/or discoloration of the screen.
• Do not install the unit in strong sunlight or strong lighting. Proper copying may become
impossible.
• Do not install the unit in locations where the temperature may change suddenly as this may
disable the unit’s ability to make copies.
• Make thick and dark lines inside the copying area.
Note that any writing inside the shaded area (on
right) cannot be copied.
• Do not allow writing to remain on the screen for an
extended period of time as it will become harder to
erase.
• Do not touch the screen, write with markers, or
erase while the screen is moving as this may result
in damage to the unit.
• Do not erase with an overly dirty eraser (see page 24).
• Do not attach chart paper to the screen film for copying as this may result in damage to the
unit.
• Use only the included or designated markers, erasers and thermal transfer film. (See page
28.)
Use of accessories other than those included or designated (such as oil-based
markers) may damage the screen or result in hard-to-erase markings.
• Do not store the thermal transfer film in a location subject to extreme changes in
temperature (such as near air conditioning or heating equipment) as this may cause
condensation on the thermal transfer film and result in poor print quality and/or paper jams.
• The length of one roll of designated thermal transfer film (Replacement film: UG-6001) is
approximately 50 meters. One roll of thermal transfer film can make approximately 150
sheets of copies.
Note that the total number of copies may differ depending on the operating conditions.
Also note that the length of the thermal transfer film supplied with the unit is shorter
than the replacement film roll and is only approximately 10 meters.
• Store markers horizontally as vertical storage may stop the ink from coming out.
