Care and storage
Beware of moisture condensation.
Moisture condensation means that water vapor in the air becomes liquid and
sticks to the printer surface. This phenomenon is caused by the following.
Rapidly heating the room in which the printer is placed
Cool air (from an air conditioner, etc.) blown directly at the printer
Moving the printer from a cold place to a warm place
Moisture in the air will condense on the paper, deteriorating print quality or
causing paper jams.
Under conditions where moisture condensation has occurred or may occur, do not
operate the printer until it is dry or until there is no possibility that condensation
will occur.
Do not spray volatile solvent on the printer or allow the printer to be in
contact with rubber or plastic products for an extended period of time.
For example, spraying an insecticide on the printer or wiping it with thinner or
benzine may deteriorate or discolor the printer cabinet. Such deterioration and
discoloring also occurs if the printer is in contact with rubber or plastic products
for an extended period of time.
Operate the printer at least once every six months.
If the printer is not used for an extended period of time, it may malfunction.
Operate the printer at least once every six months.
Carry the printer with both hands.
When lifting or carrying the printer, use both hands.
Transport the printer carefully.
When transporting the printer, place it in the original box with the original
packing material. If you don't have the original packaging, pack the printer with
enough cushioning material to absorb any impacts during transportation. Be sure
to remove the SmartMedia, CompactFlash and automatic feeder from the printer.
