Using the printer :

• Be careful not to drop or bump the printer on a hard surface;

• Do not install the printer in direct sunlight or such areas. Suitable environment for the use of the printer is as follows:

Operating temperature : -10°c à 50°C

Relative humidity : 30 % et 80 %

• Do not install the printer near devices that generate strong electromagnetic fields such as a copy machine.

• Do not open platen cover during printing.

• Do not remove or reinstall the communication cable during printing or transmission.

• Do not touch the connectors of the communication cable during printing.

• Switch the POWER OFF when not in use.

• Do not use other solvent.

• The AC adapter, the battery charger and the battery pack may become warm when in use. This is normal and is not a malfunction.

• When the battery pack is used at low temperature, the length of time the printer can be used may be shortened.

The self-test :

→ The self-test prints out the current setting value of printer. The way of self-testis as follows:

1. Insert proper paper into the printer.

2. Power oon while pressing FEED button to start self-test.

3. The printer will print out her current settings (ROM version and communication mode).

4. And then a pattern of characters will be printed out.

5. The self-test will be finished automatically and turned to the standby status.

Using belt-clip :

→ Insert belt-clip in the hole and screw it with a screwdriver or a coin.
