CAUTION:
Note that the (thermal head) becomes very hot during normal operation, creating the
danger of burn injury. Be sure to wait for about 10 minutes after turning printer power off
before beginning the procedures.
When performing procedures, be sure to use a grounded wrist band or take other
measures to protect against electrostatic charge. Failure to do so can result in damage to
the (thermal head).
Never touch the thermal element (the area that looks like it is marked with a thin black line)
of the (thermal head) with your hand. Doing so can damage the heating element.
Whenever there is dirt or any other foreign matter on the (thermal head), clean it off with a
cotton swab moistened with alcohol.
