11-5. Environmental Requirements
Temperature and humidity
(1) During operation
Temperature: 5°C to 45°C
Humidity:
10% RH to 90% RH (no condensation)
(2) During storage (excluding paper)
Temperature: -20°C to 60°C
Humidity:
10% RH to 90% RH (no condensation)
Note:
The maximum temperature and humidity combination is 40°C and 90% RH (without condensation).
11-6. Reliability Specifications
(1) Service life
Mechanical: 20,000,000 lines
Head:
150 km, 150,000,000 dots (maximum for monochrome printing)
<Conditions>
Average printing ratio: 12.5%; recommended thermal paper: 65 µm (when using P220AG)
(2) MCBF: 60,000,000 lines
The Mean Cycle Between Failure (MCBF) is defined to be the overall failure cycle, which includes random or wear fail-
ures that occur until the printer reaches its mechanical life of 20,000,000 lines.
Note:
The mechanical life is 20,000,000 lines. The MCBF of 60,000,000 lines does not indicate the durable service life.
(3) Auto cutter service life
l
Paper width of 79.5 mm and 57.5 mm including tack label backing paper
Paper width between 65 µm and 100 µm: 2,000,000 partial cuts, 2,000,000 full cuts
Paper width greater than 100 µm and up to 150 µm: 600,000 partial cuts, 600,000 full cuts
l
Paper width of 79.5 mm for full-face thermal label paper
300,000 partial cuts and 300,000 full cuts
Note:
All the reliability values indicated above are based on the use of the recommended thermal paper. They are not guar-
anteed with the use of non-recommended thermal paper.
