Safety Warnings and Precautions

130

Kiaro! 200 User Guide

Never remove the cover from the printer. This could cause a serious electrical 
shock.

It is dangerous to put your fingers deep inside the ink cartridge boxes. There are 
pin-sharp parts which may hurt you or alternatively you may cause damage that will 
lead to breakdown.

Keep children from touching the power cord, internal parts of the printer when it is 
open, and moving parts inside the printer (gears, belts, rollers, and electrical 
components). This could cause personal injury or damage the printer.

Labels printed with this printer should not directly be stuck on food such as fruits 
and vegetables. They should be stuck on the plastic wrap over the food.

Important

To prevent machine failures, do not open the ink tank door or maintenance 
cartridge exchange door, do not turn off the printer, and do not remove the power 
plug from the outlet while the printer is printing. If you do so, the print head 
protection function is not performed properly, resulting in a machine failure or ink 
leakage which can soil your clothes and the surrounding area.

Do not apply excessive force or strong shock to the upper unit. Doing so can result 
in a machine failure or impair printer quality. Be sure to open/close the upper unit 
slowly.

Do not place the printer close to TV, radio receiver or loudspeakers, etc. The 
magnetic field produced may cause the printer to malfunction, or the printer may 
interfere with TV/radio reception.

Printed labels and ink can discolor due to ultraviolet rays and ozone.

Moving the Printer

Warning

Call the dealer for advice before you ship the printer a long distance or move the 
printer by car or truck where it may be subjected to shock and vibration. Moving the 
printer without the proper preparation could subject it to shocks and vibrations 
which could damage the printer and cause a fire.

Caution

Before moving the printer, use the appropriate procedures to drain ink from the 
printhead or entire print system. See Preparing for Moving and Preparing for 
Shipping.

Before you move the printer to another location in the same building, disconnect 
the power cord and make sure that all other cables are disconnected.

The printer can weigh up to 170 pounds (77 kilograms). Three persons are required 
to lift the printer. Lift only by the black frame on the bottom of the printer. Do not 
grasp any other part of the printer to lift it. Do not lift the unit by the print engine.
