12. HANDLING THE PRESENTER
12.1  Precautions in Handling
1)
Do not store or use the printer in locations that are dusty, oily or exposed to metallic dust.
2)
Do not apply an unreasonable amount of force on the body.
(This can disfigure the frame and lead to the printer not functioning properly.)

Avoid sudden changes even if the ambient temperature and humidity are within standard conditions.
Allow the printer to sit in its new environment for at least 30 minutes before use in the event there has
been a sudden change.

Do not use the printer in an environment where condensation has formed.  If condensation should form,
absolutely never turn ON the power until the condensation has dried.

The setup angle for the presenter should be a maximum of ±5
°
, as shown in Figure 12.

Paper transport and life cannot be guaranteed when using recording paper other than what is recom-
mended.

Be careful not to allow foreign matter to adhere to the recording paper.
8)
Be careful not to apply an excess amount of force on the cable connectors.
9)
When closing the presenter from an open state, verify that the presenter is securely locked before oper-
ating.
12.2  Precautions Relating to Safety

After operation is completed, the surface of the motor can be very hot, so be careful never to touch it
