Thermal PrintingBasic Setting and Operations

Extra care should be taken to avoid touching the printhead which gets hot and is sensitive to electrostatic

discharges.

CAUTION—HOT SURFACE: The printhead becomes hot while printing. To protect from

damaging the printhead and risk of personal injury, avoid touching the printhead. Only use the

cleaning pen to perform printhead maintenance.

CAUTION—ESD: The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of

the human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the printhead and other electronic

components used in this device. You must observe static-safe procedures when working with the

printhead or the electronic components under the top cover.

Determining the Printer’s Configuration Settings

Use the printer's Configuration Report to verify option installation, media handling, and print settings.

The printer provides a configuration report of the settings and hardware configuration. Operational status

(darkness, speed, media type, etc.), installed printer options (network, interface settings, cutter, etc.) and

printer description information (serial number, model name, firmware version, etc.) are all included in the

configuration report.
