◆
Even if the printer connects with the AC adapter during printing or transmission powered by the
battery pack, a power supply will be continued from the battery pack until its job is completed.
If the printer suspends printing because the battery remaining capacity becomes low, connect AC
adapter and restart printing or transmission.
◆
DO NOT use the thermal head when it is wet. Doing so may damage the printer.
◆
Using the printer under low temperature environment or printing at a high print rate might cause
unclear printing or generate loud sound. This is not a failure in the printer, but an inherent paper
phenomenon.
◆
Continuous printing with high print ratio might cause temporarily stop printing by temperature
detection of the printer. Printing resumes when the printer's temperature cools down. When this
error occurs and "Data discarding when error occurs" in the Function Setting is "Enabled", the
transmitted printing data while this error occurs is discarded.
◆
When the battery pack is used at low temperature, the operating time of the printer can be used may
be shortened.
◆
The indicator of battery remaining capacity displayed in POWER LED is for reference. The battery
level may be changed depending on the printer operation, so charge the battery pack before the
battery becomes low.
◆
The battery pack should be recharged at 32 to 104°F (0 to 40°C).
◆
The charging time depends on the ambient temperature and the voltage level of the battery pack.
Normally, using the printer or the battery charger "PWC-A071-A1", it takes about 4 hours to charge
after running down a battery pack.
Using the quad battery charger "PWC-A074-A1", it takes about 5 hours.
◆
The battery pack, AC adapter and car charger may get hot when in use. This is normal and not a
malfunction.
◆
After using the battery charger, unplug the AC plug from the outlet. And then, remove the battery
pack from the battery charger.
◆
Set the paper width before using the printer for the first time. DO NOT change the paper width after
starting to use the printer. Doing so may damage the printer.
◆
Always use the specified thermal paper. See "21 ACCESSORIES AND CONSUMABLE PARTS" for
details.
◆
DO NOT touch the thermal head directly. Doing so may result in poor printing quality due to the dirt
or damage by the static electricity.
◆
NEVER touch the portions such as the thermal head, the paper sensor or the platen roller directly
while opening the paper cover to install the thermal paper. Doing so may cause injury or other
accidents.
◆
The printer has two paper cutters on the paper outlet: one is on the printer side, and the other is on
the paper cover side. DO NOT touch the cutter. Especially, make sure not to touch the exposed
cutter while the printer cover is open.
◆
Be careful not to get your fingers or hands caught in the printer when opening or closing the paper
cover.
