Attach the supplied paper flanges to both sides of the print paper.
When you pinch the latches on the paper flange, the stoppers retract into the shaft.
Attach the flanges to the print paper with the stoppers retracted.
Make sure that the flanges are attached to the print paper securely, and release the
latches.
NOTE
•
Take care not to pinch your fingers.
•
Do not remove the sticker on the print paper yet.
•
Do not slacken the paper. Any slack in the print paper may degrade the print quality.

When placing the print paper, remove one flange and keep the print paper upright
on its side with no flange.
•
When you put the print paper sideways, it may roll and fall. This may cause injury.
NOTE
Do not touch the thermal head.
Fingerprints or dust on the thermal head will degrade the print quality.
