After storing the printer without use for a long time, inspect the following before
use:
1. Move the head raising lever up and down.
2. Perform test printing (printer check) three or four times.
• Please use only the specified recording paper. Using non-specified paper may
not only result in faulty printing, but printing may become impossible.
• If the recording paper is skewed on the roller, paper jams may result.

Excessive paper dust can accumulate on the roller if the paper is cut by the
print head.
