16 CONNECTIONS OTHERS PRECAUTIONS FEATURES PREPARATION TROUBLE- SHOOTING CONTENTS BEFORE OPERATION HANDLING OF PAPER / INK RIBBON SET 2 22 2 2 BEFORE PRINTING • Fingerprints or dust on the paper’s printing surface may degrade the print quality and cause paper jams. When the manual feed & cut mode has been selected, repeat the FEED & CUT procedure three times after replacing the print paper. When the print paper with the post card printing on its reverse side is installed, repeat five times. If you omit cutting the print paper by the FEED & CUT procedure, first two or three prints may not be printed partly because of finger oil or dirt. • When the print paper or ink ribbon is abruptly transferred from a cool place to a hot place, vapor or dew is generated on the surface, which causes paper jams or degraded print quality. Leave the print paper in the room to stabilize its temperature before use. • If you repeat the FEED & CUT procedure more than the designated number of times while installing the print paper, the indicated number of prints may not be made. In addition, if you replace the print paper before it is used up, the indicated number of prints may not be made. 2 22 2 2 AFTER PRINTING • If the paper absorbs nonvolatile organic solvents (alcohol, ester, ketone, etc.) the print may be discolored. • Discoloration of prints is accelerated if the print paper comes into contact with soft vinyl chloride such as transparent tape. • Avoid storing prints in direct sunlight or places with high humidity. 2 22 2 2 STORAGE OF PAPER / INK RIBBON SET • Do not store the print paper and ink ribbon in the container made of soft polyvinyl chloride. They may be discolored because of chemical reaction. • Store the print paper and ink ribbon out of direct sunlight and away from heating appliances in a cool, dark place where the temperature is 5˚C to 30˚C and the humidity is 20% to 60% RH.
