• Do not install the printer in direct sunlight or such areas. Suitable environment
for the use of the printer is as follows:
Operating temperature : -10°c à 50°C
Relative humidity : 30 % et 80 %
•Do not install the printer near devices that generate strong electromagnetic fields
such as a copy machine.
•Do not open platen cover during printing.
•Do not remove or reinstall the communication cable during printing or
transmission.
•Do not touch the connectors of the communication cable during printing.
•Switch the POWER OFF when not in use.
•Do not use other solvent.
•The AC adapter, the battery charger and the battery pack may
become warm when in use. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
•When the battery pack is used at low temperature, the length of time
the printer can be used may be shortened.
Thermal paper handling :
•Store the thermal paper in a cool, dry and dark place.
•Do not rub the paper with hard object.

The self-test :
→ The self-test prints out the current setting value of printer. The way of self-test
is as follows:
1. Insert proper paper into the printer.
. Power on while pressing FEED button to start self-test.
3. The printer will print out her current settings (ROM version and communication
mode).
4. And then a pattern of characters will be printed out.
5. The self-test will be finished automatically and turned to the standby status.
Using belt-clip :
→ Insert belt-clip in the hole and screw it with a screwdriver or a coin.
