A Vital Tool for Electrical Facilities

Introducing the Mk1500

When you open a power distribution panel, you are confronted with an array of tightly packed terminals, circuit

breakers, and switches, and these myriad devices are connected by a maze of cables. If each device and cable

is not clearly labeled with a symbol or a number, maintenance can become a nightmare. In such electrical

facilities, it is common practice to use printed tube to identify cables and printed labels to identify switches.

The Mk1500 is used to print such labels and tube.

Easy yet high-quality

printing

Printing tube

The Mk1500 can print

tube that identify cables:

“AB-01” or “+20V”, for

example. Because the tube

that is used is available

commercially, the Mk1500

provides an economical

solution. The Mk1500 can

also be used to print on heat

shrink tube and 4mm I.D.

strip.

Label switches clearly

Printing labels

The Mk1500 can also be

used to print label tape (sold

separately). Because labels

that correspond to speciﬁc

cable tube labels can be

printed and applied to the

corresponding devices,

using such labels results in

improved efﬁciency.

Label with clear adhesive

lamination

Wrap-around tape

with printable and

laminating layers

When applied after printing,

the printing is covered by

plastic laminating ﬁlm,

protecting the characters

from scratching.

have been connected.

Main Features

1Compact and easy to carry

In addition to being compact at 250 mm (W) x 300 mm (D) x 85 mm (H), the printer also has a

lightweight design (2kg), making it easy to transport to the site of electrical facilities. Overall, the

printer greatly increases work efﬁciency.

2Supports a variety of printing media

The printer can print on commercially available tube, label tape, heat shrink tube, wrap around tape, and

4mm I.D. strip.

3Legible printing even in cool environments

Install the optional Tube Warmer to print legibly in environments as cool as 5°C.

4Many functions not normally found in a hand-portable machine

Includes a variety of standard features such as adjustable character size, spacing and margins, and ﬁle

saving capabilities that are hard to imagine in such a light-weight machine.

Safety Precautions

In order to ensure safe operation of the printer, be certain to observe the following safety precautions.

The shape of the power plug varies according to country.

WARNING

Do not disassemble or modify the unit

Disassembling or modifying the unit could cause a ﬁre or damage the

unit.

Do not handle the power cord with wet hands

Do not attempt to plug in or unplug the AC adapter plug, etc., while

your hands are wet. Doing so could result in electric shock.

Do not place the unit in the vicinity of heating devices

Do not place the unit or the AC adapter cord in the vicinity of heating

devices. Doing so could cause the unit or the cord to melt, which could

result in ﬁre or electric shock.

Keep away from paint thinner, etc.

Do not place the unit near alcohol, paint thinner, or other ﬂammable

solvents. The solvents could come into contact with internal electric

components and cause a ﬁre or electric shock.

Plug the power cord in securely

Be sure to plug the AC adapter plug into the power outlet securely.

Failing to do so could result in a ﬁre or electric shock.

Always keep the AC plug clean

Clean the AC adapter plug periodically. If dust, dirt, soot, etc., is

allowed to accumulate on the plug, the dust could absorb moisture,

creating an insulation fault that could cause a ﬁre.

Do not continue to use the unit if an abnormality develops

If the unit begins to smoke or emit an unusual odor, turn the power

switch off immediately, unplug the AC adapter plug from the power

outlet, and then contact your nearest dealer. Continuing to use the unit

after an abnormal condition has developed could result in ﬁre or electric

shock.

Do not connect to a multi-outlet adapter or extension cord

Do not connect this unit to a multi-outlet adapter or extension cord.

Doing so could result in ﬁre or electric shock.

Do not power on with the power cord tied. It can cause ﬁre or electrical

shock.

Do not use sprays, etc., in the vicinity of the unit

Do not use ﬂammable sprays in the vicinity of this unit. The spray

could come into contact with internal components of the unit, resulting

in a ﬁre or electric shock.

Do not clean with paint thinner, etc.

If it is necessary to wipe dirt off the unit, use gauze that has been

dampened with water and then thoroughly wrung out. Never use

ﬂammable solvents such as alcohol, benzene or paint thinner. The

solvents could come into contact with internal electric components and

cause a ﬁre or electric shock.

Turn the unit off for cleaning

Before cleaning the unit, turn the power off and unplug the AC adapter

from the power outlet. Injury could result if the power switch is

inadvertently left in the “ON” position and the unit is put into operation.
