Proper Usage and Handling
• Usage Location
Do not use near strong magnets or near devices that produce strong electromagnetic
fields.
Electromagnetic radiation from devices such
as
TVs and game machines, and strong
magnetic fields from devices such
as
speakers and large motors, may cause distortion
in
printed images.
Use in a
well-ventilated~
level area.
Leave about 15 cm (6 in.) of clearance at the front and back of the devices and 10 cm
(4 in.) of clearance on both sides.
Be sure to leave clearance around the paper-handling
slot (at the rear) so that paper has sufficient room to jut out from the slot during printing.
Place the printer so that the air vents on the back will not be blocked.
If
the air vents blocked, the printer interior could heat
up,
causing the printer
to
temporarily
stop.
• Handling Precautions
Please avoid turning the printer's power
on
and off needlessly as the printer
initialization consumes ink:
There may not
be
enough ink left for the allotted sheets
in
the
set.
Unplug the printer when you are not using it. But please note that you should plug
in
and
run the printer at least once every six months
to
ensure that it remains functional.
Before transporting the printer, remove the paper and ink cassettes and close the
paper cassette cover and the ink cassette cover.
If
dirt or foreign objects enter the printer,
print quality may deteriorate.
Pack the printer into
an
appropriate case for transport.
If
a case
is
not available, wrap it
with cloth or other protective material to protect against scratches.
Never use volatile compounds or insecticides
on
the printer, and do not allow rubber
or vinyl material to remain
in
prolonged contact with the printer. These materials may
cause deformation of the printer's casing.
o Overheating
If the printeroverheats, it will temporarily stop operating. This does notmean that the
printer has malfunctioned. The printer will resume normal printing as soon
as
it cools
down.
Temporary stoppages are most likely to occur
in
the following cases:
• When printing continuously.
• If the room is unusually warm.
• If the air vents on the back
of
the printer are blocked or
if
ventilation
is
inadequate.
