USEFUL TIPS
•
Do not pull the paper in the direction opposite to the
paper feeding direction with the print head closed.
•
Do not touch the areas around the print head and motor
during or right after printing. It can be very hot.
•
Do not use thermal paper containing Sodium (Na+),
Potassium (K+) and Chlorine (Cl-) ions that can harm
the print head thermal elements.
•
Use only water paste, starch paste, polyvinyl paste or
CMC paste when gluing thermal paper.
•
Use of volatile organic solvents such as alcohol, ester
and ketone on thermal paper can cause discoloration.
•
Some adhesive tapes on thermal paper may cause
discoloration or faded printing.
•
Use only products made from polyethylene,
polypropylene or polyester for storage of thermal paper.
If thermal paper touches anything includes phthalic acid
ester plasticizer for a long time, the image formation
ability may be reduced or the printed image may fade.
•
If thermal paper touches diazzo copy paper immediately
after copying, the printed surface may be discolored.
•
Thermal paper must not be stored with the printed
surfaces against each other as the printing may be
transferred between the surfaces.
•
If the surface of thermal paper is scratched with a hard
metal object such as a nail, the paper may become
discolored.
