Appendix Paper Specifications The paper that can be used with this printer are as follows. Use the paper that is supported by the black ink you are using. If you use paper that is not supported by the black ink you are using, ink smear, bleeding, blurring, or faint print may occur. • If you use paper that does not satisfy the required specifications, it may cause paper jams or lead to a drop of paper feed accuracy, barcode readability, and print quality. • Depending on temperature and humidity of the place where paper is stored, the paper may be curled. Since degree of shrinkage due to temperature and humidity differs between synthetic labels and backing paper, the paper curling occurs.

If you use the curled paper, the paper may be rubbed against the print head causing ink smear on printouts or paper jams. • Do not use paper sheets connected to each other with pieces of tape or other material. If you use the connected paper, the seams may cause false detection, or the paper may be rubbed against the print head causing ink smear on printouts or paper jams. • When wrapping paper around the core, it is recommended to use double-sided tape with different adhesive strength on the front and back sides to fasten the paper edge to the core. Stick the strong adhesive side to the core.

This will ensure that the paper roll is properly secured to the core and prevent paper feeding errors. If the edge of roll paper is glued directly to the core, the printer cannot detect a paper end status and multiple unprinted labels remain on the roll paper when the paper runs out.

(Recommended tape: Double-sided tape to be used at the beginning of the roll paper) Adhesive strength between roll paper backing paper and double-sided tape:
