Avoid Harsh En vi ron ments
The TH320 printer is a durable piece of equipment and can withstand a
range of physical environments. However, the printer’s internal mechanical
components are vulnerable to airborne contaminants, particularly in certain
harsh areas, such as home improvement stores, garden shops, and
warehouse environments. The printer can become inoperative rapidly in
these kinds of environments, if routine cleaning is not performed.
To prolong the serviceability of your printer in these harsh environments, we
recommend to upgrade with harsh environments kit and regular periodic
inspection and general cleaning of the MICR read head, sensors, carriage
shaft and both printer mechanisms.
