1. UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
1-1. Unpacking
After unpacking the unit, check that all the necessary accessories are included in
the package.

1-2. Handling Notes
1. Install the unit on a stand or table which has a flat, even surface.
2. Do not connect the AC power plug to the same outlet used for other electrical
noise generating devices (such as an electrical motor, etc.)
IMPORTANT!
Install the printer near an easily accessible socket-outlet.
3. Be careful not to drop paper clips, pins or other foreign objects into the unit
as these could cause the printer to malfunction.
4. When cleaning the outer surface of the unit, wipe away dirt, foreign matter,
etc., with a soft cloth, soaked in a neutral detergent.
5. Do not attempt to print when the paper or ribbon cartridge are not loaded in
the printer as this could damage the print head.
6. Use only roll paper that is not glued to the core.
7. Donotopen the front cover whileprinting(thisisinterpretedas a mechanical
error and the printer will stop).

NOTE: Take special care when following the procedures listed below.
■Two ferrite core noise filters come packed with the printer. One is for the
interface cable, while the other one is for the cash drawer drive cable.
■The ferrite core is normally packed so
it is open, as shown in Fig 3-2. If you
findthataferritecoreisnotopen,usea
pointedobject to pry theplasticlock of
the ferrite core apart (Fig 3-1). When
you do, take care not to damage the
ferrite core or the plastic lock. Fig. 3-1

To install the interface cable ferrite core
■Clamp the ferrite core onto the interface cable as shown in Fig 3-2.
Take care to avoid damaging the interface cable when installing the ferrite
core. The ferrite core should be anchored firmly in place with the fastener that
comes with it, as shown in Fig 3-3 and 3-4.

To install the cash drawer drive cable ferrite core
■Clamp the ferrite core onto the cash drawer drive cable, looping the cable as
shown in Fig. 3-2.
•When installing the ferrite core be careful not to damage the cable.
•The ferrite core should be anchored firmly in place with the fastener that
comes with it, as shown in Fig. 3-3 and Fig. 3-4.

res illustrés ci-après.

1-2. Remarques concernant la manipulation
1. Installez l’appareil sur un support ou sur une table dont la surface est plate et
uniforme.
2. Ne branchez pas l’appareil à la même prise secteur que d’autres appareils
produisant des bruits électriques (appareils ayant un moteur électrique, etc.).
IMPORTANT !
Installez l’imprimante le plus près possible d’une prise secteur facilement
accessible.
3. Veillez à ne pas laisser tomber des trombones, punaises ou autres objets dans
l’appareil, cela risque de causer un mauvais fonctionnement.
4. Nettoyez la surface de l’imprimante à l’aide d’un chiffon doux humidifié et
d’un détergent neutre.
5. Ne lancez pas l’impression si le papier ou la cartouche de ruban ne sont pas
installés, sous peine d’endommager la tête d’impression.
6. N’utilisez jamais un rouleau de papier dont l’extrémité est collée au rouleau
central.
7. N’ouvrez pas le cache avant de l’appareil pendant l’impression ; en effet cela
serait interprété comme étant une erreur mécanique et l’impression s’inter-
romprait automatiquement.
