Operation
Before Printing Once the printer is connected to the Stryker Digital Capture Device (page 7) and before initiating printing, the paper and ink ribbon need to be loaded as described below.
Notes on Handling the Ink Ribbon and Paper
• Since, like other color dyes, the dyes used in this ink ribbon may discolor over time, the product will neither be replaced nor be warranted against any color change. Handling paper rolls • Place the paper roll vertically on the stable place, when opening the wrapping. If you open the wrapping holding it with hands or placing it horizontally, you may drop it. Dropping may result in an injury. • Be sure not to open the wrapping with a knife such as a cutter. This may damage a paper roll and ink ribbon and you may not be able to use them for printing. • Whenever you set down a paper roll, place it standing on its end as show in the figure below. If you place it on its side, it could roll of the surface and fall, possibly causing personal injury. Operation
Do not re-use Doing so may result in malfunction and negatively affect printing results. Compatible ink ribbon and paper • Be sure to use only ink ribbon and paper that is intended specifically for use with this printer. • Always use the ink ribbon and paper provided in the same package together. Each printing pack contains two ink ribbons rolls and two paper rolls. • For details on the ink ribbon and paper that can be used in this printer, see “Ink Ribbon and Paper” on page 19.
• Always hold a paper roll securely with two hands. Dropping a paper roll could cause personal injury. Any dust on the printing surface will result in poor printout quality.
Handling the ink ribbon • Do not separate the two spools of the ink ribbon before loading it in the printer. • An IC board is built into one of the spools. Do not touch the terminals of the IC board, and do not allow them to come into contact with metal objects, etc. Furthermore, do not strike, bend or drop the ink ribbon; doing so could make the ink ribbon unusable. Hold securely with two hands
IC board
Notes on storing ink ribbons and paper • Do not store ink ribbons and paper in locations exposed to high temperatures, high humidity, dust, or direct sunlight. • Do not open the ink ribbon and paper packages until you are ready to use them. • If it is necessary to store a partially used ink ribbon or paper roll for an extended period of time, it is recommended that they be stored in their original bags.
• Do not attempt to re-use a used ink ribbon. • Do not rewind the ink ribbon. • Do not touch the surface of the ink ribbon, and do not leave it exposed in a dusty location. Fingerprints and dust on the surface of the ink ribbon can cause smudges in printed output, and can damage the thermal head.

Precautions Safety
Miscellaneous
• Operate the printer using the power source specified in “Technical Specifications” (page 20). • Be careful not to damage the power cable by placing or dropping heavy objects on it; it is dangerous to use the unit with a damaged power cable. • If you do not intend to use the printer for a long time, press the 1 On/standby switch on the printer to enter the standby state and then remove the power plug. • Unplug the power cable by grasping the plug, not the cable itself. • Do not disassemble the unit. There is a danger of electric shock from the internal parts. • Be careful not to spill water or other liquids on the unit, or to allow combustible or metallic material to enter the cabinet. If used with foreign matter in the cabinet, the unit is liable to fail, or present a risk of fire or electric shock. • If the unit malfunctions or if a foreign body falls into the cabinet, disconnect the power immediately and consult your local Stryker representative.
Installation • Avoid placing the unit in a location subject to: – mechanical vibration – high humidity – excessive dust – direct or excessive sunlight – extremely high or low temperatures • Ventilation holes are provided on the back of the unit to prevent the unit from overheating. Be careful not to obstruct them with other objects or by covering the unit with a cloth etc. • To prevent internal heat built-up, leave enough room around the printer for air to circulate through the ventilation holes (intake) on the left and right hand side and the ventilation holes (exhaust) on the rear of the cabinet (at least more than 10 cm). On condensation • If the printer is subjected to wide and sudden changes in temperature, such as when it is moved from a cold room to a warm room or when it is left in a room with a heater that tends to produce quantities of moisture, condensation may form inside the printer. In such cases the printer will probably not work properly, and may even develop a fault if you persist in using it. If moisture
16
Precautions
EN
condensation forms, turn off the power and leave the printer standing for at least one hour. • If the printing pack is subjected to wide and sudden changes in temperature, condensation may form on the ink ribbon or paper inside. This will cause the printer to malfunction. Also, if the printing pack is used in this state, spots are likely to appear on the printout. • To store a half-used printing pack, replace it in its original packing and reseal the package. If possible, keep the sealed printing pack in a cool, dark location. To subsequently use the printing pack, place it, in its sealed package, in a warm room for several hours. Doing so prevents condensation from forming when the printing pack is removed from its package.
Transportation When transporting the printer, be certain to first remove all accessories, including the ink ribbon and paper. Carrying the printer with accessories installed can later cause the printer to malfunction. It is recommended that the ink ribbon and paper roll be stored in their original bags. Warning To avoid electric shock and potentially fatal injury, unplug the console from the electrical outlet before cleaning. Do not sterilize the printer or immerse it in any liquid. Doing so will damage the unit.
Cleaning Note
Before you clean the printer, be sure to press the 1 On/ standby switch to enter the standby state and then remove the power plug.
When the cabinet becomes dirty When solvents such as benzene or thinner, or acid, alkaline or abrasive detergent, or chemical cleaning cloths are used on the printer surface, the surface finish may be damaged.

• As paper is used during cleaning procedures, the specified number of prints possible with a paper roll may be reduced if the same roll is used for multiple cleaning procedures. • If there is not enough paper, the paper on which the cleaning sheet is attached may remain on the paper holder after cleaning is performed. In such cases, be sure to replace the paper roll. • If the cleaning sheet is not ejected despite sufficient paper, cut off the paper on which the cleaning sheet is attached from the paper holder, and repeat the procedure from step 2.
