13. Precautions in Designing External Case 

 

- As the amount of thermal paper installed in a roll becomes smaller, it is more likely to   

cause curling, causing printing failure or paper jamming. Check the performance by using   

thermal papers with high curling effects. 

 

- Secure enough space in the adjacent areas except the parts that are connected directly   

to the printer mechanism during external case design so that they are affected by   

external force. Loading by external force may cause printing failure or paper jamming. 

 

- Prevent accumulation of paper dust or residues in the control panel or power supply   

device in the case design, which could happen when thermal paper is used over a long   

time. 

 

- The ambient temperature may increase significantly when thermal printer is used. Design   

the system in such a way that the heat can be discharged easily to outside and prevent   

burn injuries to users. Attach a warning label so that users can use the device safely.
