Roll Paper Handling
The paper is a thermal paper that changes color with the application of heat. Note the
following:
Storage Precautions
The paper starts changing color at around 70
°
C. It is affected by heat, humidity, light,
and chemicals regardless of whether the paper has been used.
• Store the paper rolls in a cool, dry, and dark place.
• After opening the package, use it quickly.
• If the paper is left in contact with plastic film containing plasticizers (such as a vinyl
chloride film or cellophane tape) for an extended time, the paper will lose some of its
ability to reproduce color. If you are going to store the paper in a folder, for example,
use a folder made of paper stock or polypropylene.
• When using glue on the paper, do not use glue containing organic solvents such as
alcohol or ether, as they will change the color of the paper.
• For prolonged storage, we suggest you make copies of results printed on the roll
paper. Due to the characteristics of the thermal paper, the recording section may lose
color over time.
Handling Precautions
• Be sure to use only genuine paper rolls provided by YOKOGAWA.
• Touching the paper with sweaty hands can leave finger prints or blur the printing.
• Rubbing the surface with a hard object can cause the paper to change color due to
the heat caused by friction.
• If chemicals, oil, or other liquids come in contact with the paper, the paper may
change color or the printing may fade.
Precautions to Be Taken When Using the Built-in Printer
Allow enough space around the output area of the printer. If the roll paper is continuously
fed out when the output area is close to a wall, for example, the roll paper that has been
delivered may reenter the output area and get entangled.
