General Safety Information
Pay attention to the following instructions before using the printer.
1. Safety Instructions
Caution: The print head is calorific and its temperature is high when printing or just after operation, so
please don’t touch it or its peripherals for safety purpose;
Warning: The print head is an ESD-sensitive device. To avoid damage, do not touch either its printing
parts or connecting parts.
2. Caution
1) Install the printer on a flat and stable surface.
2) Reserve adequate space around the printer so that the operation and maintenance can be performed
conveniently.
3) Keep the printer far away from water source.
4) Do not locate or reserve the printer in an environment with high temperature, humidity and highly
polluted. Keep printer out of direct sunlight, highlight and heat source.
5) Do not place the printer in a place exposed to vibration and impact.
6) No dew condensed on the printer. If there is, do not turn on the printer until the dew has boiled away.
7) Plug power cord into a suitable ground outlet. Avoid sharing one electrical outlet with large power
motors and other devices that may cause the fluctuation of voltage.
8) Unplug the power cord when the printer will be laid aside for a long time.
9) Prevent water or conductive substance goes into the printer. In case this happens, switch off the
electricity immediately.
10) Never print if there is no recording paper to avoid damaging platen roller and print head.
11) It is suggested to use the recommended print media or equivalent media to ensure quality print and
printer lifetime.
12) Adjust the print density as light as possible to keep the print head durable.
13) Do not disassemble the print unit of your own, even for repairing purpose.

Problem
Status LED
Buzzer
Solution or Reason
Print head
overheated
Self- recover when print head
cool down.
Voltage
abnormal
Self-recover when voltage back
to normal.
Print head lift up
Reserved function. Self-recover
when print head is pressed down.
Paper out
Self-recover after loading paper
Calibration error
Press the button to continue or
repower the printer.
Label positioning
error
Press the button to continue or
repower the printer.
Paper jam
Lift up the print head and clear
the jammed paper, then printer
recovers after pressing down the
print head.
The temperature of print head is detected by a thermal resistor. If the print head is overheating, the
protective circuit will shut off the power and force the printer to stop printing; the temperature of print head
when printing is stopped is 65 .℃
