Zebra TLP-2844 User Manual - Shock Hazard

Shock Hazard

The printer and power supply should never be operated in a location where

either one can get wet. Personal injury could result.

Media and Ribbon

Always use high-quality, approved labels, tags and ribbons. If adhesive

backed labels are used that DO NOT lay flat on the backing liner, the

exposed edges may stick to the label guides and rollers inside the printer,

causing the label to peel off from the liner and jam the printer. Permanent

damage to the print head may result if a non-approved ribbon is used as it

may be wound incorrectly for the printer or contain chemicals corrosive to

the print head. Approved supplies can be ordered from your dealer.

If labels or ribbon run out while printing, DO NOT turn the power switch

OFF (0) while reloading or data loss may result. After loading new

supplies, press the feed button to resume printing.

Static Discharge

The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the

human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the print head or

electronic components used in this device.  DO NOT TOUCH the print

head or the electronic components under the top cover.

Thermal Printing

The print head becomes hot while printing.  To protect from damaging the

print head and risk of personal injury, avoid touching the print head.  Use

only the cleaning pen to perform maintenance.
