Proper Usage and Handling Usage Location z Leave about 15 cm (6 in.) of clearance at the front and back of the equipment and 10 cm (4 in.) of clearance on both sides. Be sure to leave clearance around the paper-handling slot (at the front) so that paper has sufficient room to extend out from the slot during printing. z Do not use near strong magnets or near devices that produce strong electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic radiation from devices such as TVs and game machines, and strong magnetic fields from devices such as speakers and large motors, may cause distortion in printed images. When Not In Use z Be sure to close the print receptacle cover. If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer, print quality may deteriorate. z Unplug the power cord from the outlet. If using the battery pack, remove it. But please note that you should plug in and run the printer at least once every six months to ensure that it remains functional. When Planning Not to Use for an Extended Period z When the printer is not in use, please remove the cartridge from the printer and store it. Return the cartridge to its original bag and package. Store the package horizontally. Before Transporting z Close the print receptacle cover. If dirt or foreign objects enter the printer, print quality may deteriorate. Avoid Condensation Related Problems z You can avoid condensation by placing the equipment (printer, cartridge) in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting the equipment adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing the equipment from the bag. Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on the external and internal surfaces of the equipment. If Condensation Forms Inside the Printer z Stop using the printer immediately. Continued use may damage the equipment. Wait until the water droplets have evaporated completely before resuming use. 13
