– 27 – 14.3 Allowable Static Electricity Le vel Notes) ● Use SLS-060P-50 (Sanken) as the po wer source. ● The reference data is sho wn in the table abov e; this data may dif fer depending on the installa- tion conditions. 14.4 V ibration T est 14.
– 28 – 14.6 Life T est MCBF Notes) ● The thermal head life gi ven abov e is applicable for cases when standard paper is used. ● Printing continuously at a print ratio of less than 12.5% increases the resistance of the ther- mal head’ s heat-generating element by more than 15% of the initial v alue.
– 29 – 15. INST ALLING THE P APER ROLL Pass the paper o ver the damper shaft, then pass it under the thermal head and cutter guide. Feed the paper until the end enters the presenter’ s roller . OPEN Lever • Remove the arm from the frame and install the paper roll.
– 30 – Carefully place the paper roll on the frame, then wind the roll to remov e any slack in the paper . (Incor - rectly installing the paper roll may bend the frame or cause a paper jam.) Press the RESUME button. PRESS Firmly press the areas indicated with crosshatches on the thermal head until the lever is reset.
