Usage recommendations

Use genuine or high-quality thermal paper with the correct width to ensure legible prints and reduce wear on the print head. Keep the paper path and cutter free of debris and replace rolls before they reach very low levels to avoid feed issues. Ensure proper ventilation around the unit and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures to preserve print quality.
