Operating Precautions
Observe the following precautions to ensure that the printer provides you with
the years of trouble-free operation for which it is designed.
• Avoid using the printer in areas exposed to direct sunlight, and in areas
subjected to high humidity, electrostatic charge, sudden temperature
changes, and temperature extremes. Operating Temperature Range: 10°C
to 35°C (50°F to 95°F)
• Never subject the printer to strong impact or shock.
• Never allow paper clips, pins, or other similar objects to get inside the printer
mechanism.
• Place the printer on a level surface when printing. A tilted surface can make
normal printing impossible.
• Unclear printing can indicate a dirty print head. If printing becomes unclear,
use the procedures on page 46 to clean the print head.
• Using the printer in a location where it is exposed to direct sunlight or other
strong light can cause malfunction of its photo sensor. Use the printer in a
location where it is not exposed to strong light.
