10. CARE/HANDLING OF THE PAPER AND RIBBON
CAUTION:
Be sure to read carefully and understand the Supply Manual. Ask your nearest authorised TOSHIBA
TEC representative for the Supply Manual. Use only paper and ribbon which meet specified
requirements. Use of non-specified paper and ribbon may shorten the head life and result in problems
with bar code readability or print quality. All paper and ribbon should be handled with care to avoid any
damage to the paper, ribbon or printer. Read the following guideline carefully.
•
Do not store the paper and ribbon for longer than the manufactures recommended shelf life.
•
Store paper rolls on the flat end, do not store them on the curved sides as this might flatten that side
causing erratic media advance and poor print quality.
•
Store the paper in plastic bags and always reseal after opening. Unprotected paper can get dirty and
the extra abrasion from the dust and dirt particles will shorten the print head life.
•
Store the paper and ribbon in a cool, dry place. Avoid areas where they would be exposed to direct
sunlight, high temperature, high humidity, dust or gas.
•
The thermal paper used for direct thermal printing must not have specifications that exceed Na
