(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operated the equipment under
FCC rules.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65. This equipment has very low levels of RF energy that it
is deemed to comply without testing of specic absorption ratio (SAR).
FCC WARNING
Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
For compliance with the Federal Noise Interference Standard, this equipment requires a shielded cable.
For RF interference suppression, if a ferrite core is provided with this device, afx it to the interface cable.
The above statement applies only to equipments marketed in U.S.A.

■ Using the Printer
● Some semiconductor devices are easily damaged by static electricity. You should turn the
printer “OFF”, before you connect or removed the cable on the rear side, in order to guard
the printer against the static electricity. If the printer is damaged by the static electricity, you
should turn the printer “OFF”.
● Be careful not to drop or bump the printer on a hard surface.
● Do not install the printer in direct sunlight or such areas.
Suitable environment for the use of the printer is as follows:
Operating temperature :0 °C to 50 °C
Relative humidity : 30 % to 80 % (No condensation)
● Do not install the printer near devices that generate strong electromagnetic elds such as a
copy machine.
● Do not open the paper cover during printing.
● Before opening the paper cover, ensure no data is being sent to the printer and turn off the
power.
● Do not remove or reinstall the communication cable during printing or transmission.
● Do not touch the connectors of the communication during printing.
● Switch the POWER OFF when not in use.
● Do not use alcohol or other solvent.
● 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.
● Use only the power cord supplied in the package.
■ Thermal Paper Handling
● Store the thermal paper in a cool, dry and dark place.
● Do not rub the paper with hard object.
● Do not leave the paper with hard object.
● Do not allow plastic lm, erasers, or adhesive tape to touch the paper for long periods.
● Do not stack the thermal paper with diazo copies immediately after copying or wet-type cop-
ies.
● Do not use chemical glue.
● Always use the clean thermal paper.
Operating Precautions

Choosing a Place for the Printer
Before actually unpacking the printer, you should take a few minutes to think about where
you plan to use it. Remember the following points when doing this.
4 Choose a rm, level surface where the printer will not be exposed to vibration.

Caution Symbol
is symbol is placed near the thermal head to indicate that it may be hot.
Never touch the thermal head immediately aer the printer has been used.
Let the thermal head cool for a few minutes before touching it.
WARNING
1) Do not touch the tear bar.
• ere is a tear bar inside the paper outlet slot. Not only should you not put
your hand in the paper outlet slot while printing is in progress, never put
your hand into the outlet even when printing is not in progress.
• e paper cover can be opened when replacing the paper. However, since
the tear bar is on the inside of the paper cover, be careful not to place your
face or hands too close to the tear bar.
2) During and immediately aer printing, the area around the thermal head is
very hot. Do not touch it, as you could be burned.
2.3. Replacing Paper Roll
Cautions :
Be sure to use paper rolls that meet the specications. Do not use paper rolls
that have the paper glued to the core because the printer cannot detect the pa-
per end correctly.
1. Before opening the paper cover, ensure no data is being sent to the printer and
turn off the power.
2. Open the paper cover by placing your nger under the cover open lever and pull
it up.

Cautions Concerning Batteries
uGeneral Battery Characteristics
● The battery is a consumable and its performance over time will gradually decrease.
● While not in use, the battery will slowly discharge itself.
● Fully charge the battery before using the printer.
● To extend battery life, it is recommended to use a smart energy management solution
such as the Auto Power Down Mode available on all Star Micronics Portable Printers.
● When used at low temperatures, battery performance will temporarily decline. Be sure
to have a fully-charged spare battery standing by if the printer will operate in a cold
environment.
uBattery Charging
● Charge the battery in an environment with a temperature ranging from 0 °C to 40 °C.
● The time required to charge the battery depends on the voltage or ambient tempera-
tures. The battery requires four hours of charging under normal conditions.
● Do not remove the battery while it is charging.
● The battery does not need to be fully discharged before recharging it.
● The battery may be warm after charging or use. This condition is normal and does not
indicate a malfunction.
● Do not recharge the battery after it is fully charged.
uBattery Life
● The battery can be charged approximately 500 times in the normal temperature range
without losing performance. If an extreme decline in the running time of the battery is
noticed, the battery is reaching the end of its usable life. It is recommended to replace
the old battery with a new one.
uBattery Storage
● Storing a charged battery for a long period may damage its capacity. Be sure to fully
discharge the battery before storing or if it will not be used for a long period of time.
● When the battery is not in use, remove it from the printer or charger.
● Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
● Recommended Storage Temperature Range: +15 °C to +25 °C
● Avoid storing the battery in a place with extremely high or low humidity.

The printer is ready to receive data as soon as it completed the self test.
4.3. Instruction for Auto Power Down Mode
The printer in the Power Down Mode will recover to the Print Ready Mode when re-
ceiving commands or button operations.
However, print data received while shifting from the Power Down Mode to the print
Ready Mode (for approx. 1 sec.) is discarded and cannot be printed.
Therefore, if the printer is in the Power Down Mode, please be sure to recover it to
the Print Ready Mode before sending print data.
[ How to Recover to Print Ready Mode & How to Check ]
1) Send the Status command (DLE EOT EOT), and Try to re-send it until receiving
the transmission value which is from 30H to 37H.
Or
2) Press the FEED button or the MODE button (the Power button for SM-S200 se-
ries) and conrm that the Power lamp (Green LED) is turned on.
