  1. Please use the recommended thermal paper or same quality paper, otherwise it will influence the printing quality and decrease the thermal printer head life;
  2. Don’t stick the paper on the roll paper mandril;
  3. If the thermal paper is polluted by chemical or oil, the thermal paper heat sensibility decreases, which will influence the printing quality;
  4. Don’t use finger nail or hard articles to touch the surface of thermal paper, otherwise it will cause color fading;
  5. When the environment temperature is higher than 70°C, the thermal paper color will fade, so pay attention to the influence of temperature, humidity and sunlight.
