CAUTIONS 

 

 

 Contents saved in the USB memory and in the internal memory cannot be permanently 

saved.    Please note that we are not responsible for damages  or lost profits resulting 
from data loss attributable to battery consumption, problems, repairs, etc. 

 

  Do  not  share  the  electric  outlet  with  other  equipment    (such  as  air  conditioner, 

refrigerator, microwave, office automation equipment, electrical power tools, etc.) which 
requires  a  large  electrical  capacity 

––  if  the  voltage  drops,  then  the  machine  could 

malfunction. 

 Never lick the ink ribbon, tubes and tapes. 

 Make sure to place the machine on the stable and horizontal work table. Avoid unstable 

  or inclined place. It may lead to an injury or damage to the machine. 

 Do not touch the USB connector or power inlet. It may lead to damage of the printer by 

  electrostatic. 

 

 

 When the machine will not be used for a long time period, disconnect the power plug 

from the electric outlet, for safety. 

 Prior to moving the machine to another place, make sure to disconnect the power plug. 

Moving the machine to another place with leaving the power plug connected may lead 
to damage of the power plug or the AC cord, which may result in a fire or electric shock. 

 

 When inserting/removing the USB memory, be sure to turn off the power beforehand.   

If the power is not turned off, an data loss or trouble may result. 

 When replacing the half cutter, make sure to turn off the power beforehand. Otherwise, 

the machine may unexpectedly operate and lead to an injury.
