2.3 CARE AND HANDLING OF THE PAPER AND RIBBON
CAUTION:
Be sure to read carefully and understand the Supply Manual. Use only paper and ribbon which meet
specified requirements. Use of non-specified paper and ribbon may shorten the head life and result
in problems with bar code readability or print quality. All paper and ribbon should be handled with care
to avoid any damage to the paper, ribbon or printer. Read the following guideline carefully.
• Do not store the paper and ribbon for longer than the manufactures recommended shelf life.
• Store paper rolls on the flat end, do not store them on the curved sides as this might flatten that
side causing erratic paper advance and poor print quality.
• Store the paper in plastic bags and always reseal after opening. Unprotected paper can get dirty
and the extra abrasion from the dust and dirt particles will shorten the print head life.
• Store the paper and ribbon in a cool, dry place. Avoid areas where they would be exposed to
direct sunlight, high temperature, high humidity, dust or gas.
• The thermal paper used for direct thermal printing must not have the specifications which exceed
Na + 800 ppm, K + 250 ppm and CL-500 ppm.
• Some ink used on pre-printed labels may contain ingredients which shorten the print head's
product life. Do not use labels pre-printed with ink which contain hard substances such as
carbonic calsium (CaCO
3
) and kaolin (Al
2
O
3
, 2SiO
2
, 2H
2
O).
• Avoid using paper containing SiO
2
or talc which wears the print head protection layer.
