m) The door rotation system of the external case that holds the platen block should be
installed while pressing down the center of the platen roller block. If it is installed by
pressing down one side of the platen roller block, it may cause a printing problem or
paper jamming. Check the actual performance while you use the device. Provide
instructions to press down the center of the platen roller block during installation.
n) Provide sufficient space when designing the external case so that user can remove the
lever easily using the fingers.
o) Printing quality cannot be guaranteed if thermal paper that is not recommended is used
and it may reduce the life span of the thermal head.
p) The area of sensing by the paper detection sensor changes depending on the input and
output resistance. Refer to the paper detection sensor sample circuit in 7-1-3. Check
the performance by using the device in actual conditions.
q) Move the paper feed motor forward in 4 ~ 8 steps when you first turn on the power after
product design or reattaching the separated platen roller block. Otherwise the first line
will be overlapped. Check the performance by using the device in actual conditions.
