Precautions
The following precautions will help to ensure that this machine will continue to function correctly.
• Try to avoid locations that have the following adverse conditions:
* Temperatures out of the specification * Direct sunlight * High humidity
* Shared power source * Excessive vibration * Dust/Gas
• The cover should be cleaned by wiping with a dry cloth or a cloth slightly dampened with a mild
detergent solution. NEVER USE THINNER OR ANY OTHER VOLATILE SOLVENT on the plastic
covers.
• USE ONLY TOSHIBA TEC SPECIFIED paper and ink.
• DO NOT STORE the paper or ink where they might be exposed to direct sunlight, high tempera-
tures, high humidity, dust, or gas.
• Ensure that the printer is operated on a level surface.
• Any data stored in the memory of the printer could be lost during a printer fault.
• Try to avoid using this equipment on the same power supply as high voltage equipment or equip-
ment likely to cause mains interference.
• Unplug the machine whenever you are working inside it or cleaning it.
• Keep your work environment static free.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the machines, as these items may become unbalanced and fall
causing injury.
• Do not block the ventilation slits of the machines, as this will cause heat to build up inside the
machines and may cause fire.
• Do not lean against the machine. It may fall on you and could cause injury.
• Do not turn the machine upside down.
• Care must be taken not to injure yourself with the printer paper cutter.
• Unplug the machine when it is not used for a long period of time.
Request Regarding Maintenance
• Utilize our maintenance services.
After purchasing the machine, contact your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance
once a year to have the inside of the machine cleaned. Otherwise, dust will build up inside the
machines and may cause a fire or a malfunction. Cleaning is particularly effective before humid
rainy seasons.
• Our preventive maintenance service performs the periodic checks and other work required to
maintain the quality and performance of the machines, preventing accidents beforehand.
For details, please consult your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance.
