Safety
2.2 Operating Tips
Your new SATO Printer is the latest in printing technology and
must be cared for as any other electronic product. It is a very
durable and dependable piece of equipment, but we suggest you
follow a few common rules when installing or using your printer.
Do not operate in unstable locations such as an unsteady,
slanted or extreme vibrating table. It may cause the equipment
to shift from its desired location.
Do not operate or store the printer in applications where high
humidity with extreme condensation are prevalent. Be sure to
follow the printer’s environment operation requirements as
defined in the later in this Quick Guide. Failure to follow these
operating instructions may damage your printer and void your
warranty.
When moving the printer from a location, be sure to avoid
potential shock or damage to your printer and its cabling by first
powering off the printer, then unplug the printer from its power
receptacle and disconnect the communication cable (if non-
wireless).
Do not insert or drop anything metallic or flammable into the
openings of the printer, i.e.; cable outlet, vents or mounting hole
of the memory cartridge.
In the event that a foreign object should accidentally fall inside
the printer, immediately turn off the power, unplug the printer
from the power receptacle and contact your SATO dealer or
service center before continuing to use your printer. Using your
printer under such conditions may cause fire or electrical shock.
Do not move or ship the printer with the media loaded inside.
This will avoid damaging the components of your printer.
The printer is heavy. If possible, seek assistance when
attempting to move the printer from one location to another.
We highly recommend allocating the printer to its own
dedicated power outlet and source line. This avoids having the
printer consuming power from the same source as another
electric appliance which may consume power at various levels
and creating a fluctuating power suppy. Power surges may
negatively impact your printer’s performance and longevity.
Avoid operating in direct sunlight as this product contains
optical sensors. Prolonged direct sunlight may damage these
sensors and cause erroneous operation. Ensure the printer
cover is closed when operating.
