INSTALLINGYOURTERMINAL
INSTALLATIONREQUIREMENTS
A proper location helps to ensure that your printer provides you with the long service life for which
it is designed. Double-check to make sure that the location you select has the following
characteristics.
• Choose a location that is well ventilated.
• When installing the terminal close to a wall, make sure the distance between the wall and the
upper edge of the stacker is at least 25 centimetres for easier opening of the upper cover.
25 cm
1-1
• Make sure there is no chance of ammonia or other organic gasses being generated in the area.
• The grounded power outlet (refer to the safety instructions in the Safety section) you plan to connect to for power should be nearby and not obstructed.
• Make sure that the printer is not exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid areas in the direct airflow of air conditioners, heaters, or ventilators and areas subject to
temperature and humidity extremes.
• Choose a sturdy, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to strong vibration.
• Keep the printer away from any objects that might block its heat vents.
• Do not locate the printer near curtains or other combustible objects.
• Choose an area where there is no possibility of the printer being splashed with water or other
liquids.
• Make sure that the surrounding area is clean, dry, and free of dust.
Operational precautions
Note the following important precautions whenever using the printer.
Operating Environment
The following describes the operating environment required when using the printer:
•Temperature:
10°C to 35°C (50°F to 95°F) with fluctuation of 10°C (18°F) per hour.
• Humidity:
20% to 80% (no condensation) with fluctuation of 20% per hour.
Terminal
The following describes precautions for using the terminal.
• Never turn the terminal off or open any of its covers during a print operation.
• Never place flammable gasses, liquids or objects that generate magnetic forces near the terminal.
• When unplugging the power cord, always grasp the plug and never pull on the cord. A damaged
cord creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Never touch the power cord when your hands are wet. Doing so creates the danger of electrical
shock.
• Always unplug the power cord before moving the terminal. Failure to do so can damage the
power cord, creating the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always unplug the power cord if you do not plan to use the terminal for a long time.
• Never try to remove any secured panel or cover. The terminal contains high-voltage circuit which
creates the danger of electrical shock when exposed.
• Never try to modify the terminal. Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Never place any heavy objects on the power cord, pull on it or bend it. Doing so creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Always make sure the terminal is not placed on the electrical cord or the communications cables
of any other electrical equipment. Also make sure that cords and cables do not get into the terminal’s mechanism. Any of these conditions create the danger of malfunction and fire.
• Always take care that paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal do not get into the terminal through its vents or other openings. Such objects create the danger of fire or electrical shock.

• Do not allow water or other liquids to spill on or near the terminal. Fire or electrical shock
can occur should water or liquid come into contact with the terminal.
• Should liquid or any piece of metal accidently get inside the printer, immediately turn it off,
unplug the power cord, and contact your dealer. Failure to take this immediate action creates
the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Whenever the terminal emits unusually high amounts of heat, smoke, an unusual odor, or
noise, immediately turn it off, unplug it, and contact your dealer. Failure to take this immediate action creates the danger of fire or electrical shock.
• Paper for printer: do not use paper previously printed by your terminal or any other
printer: the ink or toner deposited on that paper might damage the printing system of
your terminal.
Caution - Be sure to locate the terminal in a well-ventilated location. A minimal amount of
ozone is generated during normal operation of this terminal. Because of this, an unpleasant odor
may result when the printer is used for extensive printing in a poorly ventilated area. For a
comfortable, healthy, and safe operation, be sure to locate the terminal in a well-ventilated area.
With both hands, slightly bend the centre part of the stacker upwards in order to insert its clips
into the notches located on the upper part of the printer. Release the stacker so that it recovers its
initial shape. If necessary, push at the base and at the centre of the stacker from underneath so
that is snaps into place behind notch A.

LOADINGPAPERMANUALLY
When printing on special paper, such as 60 to 160 g/m² max. colour paper or transparent film
(laser printer compatible), you should load the paper manually, one sheet after the other.
To do so:
Insert your sheet of paper or film between the two feed pawls 1 and 2 located on the paper
tray cover until it stops in the printer.
Adjust the sheet or film width as appropriate by means of feed pawls 1 or 2.
