Precautions for Loading Paper

CAUTION


  • When loading paper, take care not to trap or injure your fingers.


  • Be careful when replacing the paper, clearing paper jams, or cleaning the platen. Follow the instructions for these procedures properly. Not doing so could result in injury from the paper cutter inside.


  • When lifting up or lowering the paper input location cover, be careful not to trap or injure your fingers.


  • When opening or closing the front cover, do not put your fingers over the folding parts of the covers. Doing so may result in your fingers becoming trapped or injured.


  • A paper roll may be as heavy as 14 kg (30.9 lb.). Hold the paper roll horizontally with both hands. If you hold the paper roll vertically or with one hand, the paper roll may fall and cause an injury.


  • When replacing paper rolls, do not touch the spool near the gear. Doing so may cause your hands to get dirty. If your hands get dirty, wash the affected area thoroughly with soap and water.
