INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing Canon Thermal Receipt Printer RP10.
The RP10 is a compact high speed thermal receipt printer that
supports high speed printing (150 mm/sec).
The printer is equipped with the automatic leading edge feed function
using the auto cutter and mark detection. At the same time, the printer
automatically adapts to environmental changes to ensure stable print
quality by using the function to detect the voltage and temperature of
the thermal printhead.
You can eject receipts, operate the buttons, and load paper from the
front only. The printer does not require much space and can be
installed even in a limited space.

Important Safety Instructions
Handling
WARNING
Never install and operate the printer near flammable substances,
such as alcohol, paint thinner, benzene, or any other type of volatile
solution.
Never damage or modify the power cord, and never place heavy
objects on the power cord.
Always make sure that your hands are dry when you are handling
the power cord or power plug. Never grasp the power plug when
your hands are wet.
Never plug the printer into a multiplug power strip.
Never bundle, wrap, or tie the power cord around itself or another
object. Connect the power plug securely into the power outlet.
Use only the power cord provided with the printer.
Never attempt to disassemble or modify the printer.
Before you clean the printer, turn the power OFF and disconnect
the power cord from the power outlet.
To clean the printer's exterior, use a firmly wrung cloth, moistened
slightly with water. Never use any type of volatile solution, such as
alcohol, benzene or paint thinner.
If you hear strange sounds, detect smoke or abnormal heat, sense
vibration, or smell odd odors around the printer, turn OFF the
Power immediately and disconnect the power cord from the power
outlet. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer or service
representative to have the printer serviced.
Handle the printer with care. Avoid shock and vibration to the
printer caused by reckless handling. If you suspect the printer has
been accidentally damaged, turn OFF the Power immediately and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Contact your
local authorized Canon dealer or service representative to have the
printer serviced.
Before you move the printer, always turn OFF the power and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the printer, never place the printer on an
unstable or vibrating surface. The printer may tip or fall over,
causing injury.
Keep all liquids, beverages, or any type of liquid, and clips,
staples, necklaces, or other metal objects away from the printer. If
you accidentally spill liquid or drop a metal object into the printer,
turn OFF the power immediately and disconnect the power cord
from the power outlet. Contact your local authorized Canon dealer
or service representative to have the printer serviced.
Note that when using the printer in an environment where
temperature is low and humidity is high, condensation may form
inside the printer due to vapor emitted from paper during printing.
Printing while condensation is still forming inside the printer may
damage the thermal printhead. When condensation forms,
immediately turn OFF the printer and let the printer dry completely
before printing.
Make sure that foreign substances do not enter inside the paper
holder. Otherwise, this may result in incorrect operation and
malfunctions.
Never install the printer in dusty locations. Doing so may cause a
fire or electrical shock.
Do not place objects other than the Check Reader CR-150/CR-120
on the printer, as these objects may tip or fall over, and cause
injury.
When you remove the power cord, grip it by the power plug head.
Never attempt to disconnect the power cord from the power outlet
by pulling on the power cord. Doing so may damage or expose the
cord's internal wiring, and cause a fire or electrical shock.
Keep the area around the power outlet clear of all obstacles so you
can disconnect the power cord easily at all times.
Never spill water or volatile solutions (alcohol, benzene, paint
thinner) into the printer. Doing so may cause a fire or electrical
shock.
When the printer is not being used for a long period of time,
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet.

Cautions Regarding Paper
Use roll paper having a φ15 inner diameter or greater (with no core)
and a φ83 outer diameter or smaller.
Depending on the usage environment or paper conditions, even
when using recommended paper, sticking (a phenomenon where
paper sticks to the thermal printhead during printing) may occur. It
may make some text unreadable or missing in print out, or result in
a paper feed error.
Sticking is likely to occur when coverage is high (horizontal lines,
logo marks, etc.), in a low temperature environment, when printing
at low speed, etc.
Before printing, check the operation by using the paper that you use
for actual printing, at the actual temperature and humidity levels,
under the actual operating conditions.
Thermal paper does not like an environment where temperature or
humidity is high. Especially when temperature reaches 60°C
(140°F) or higher, discoloring begins. Take extra care when storing
paper.
If the temperature becomes high while paper is caught in the paper
output section, the paper components may begin to melt and cause
the paper to stick to the thermal printhead.
When using perforated paper, perforate it from the heat-sensitive
side. Note, however, that the burr height or paper chips generated
during perforating may lower the print quality or cause the printer to
malfunction. Take extra care.
Do not pull paper or cover the paper output section during
operation.
Use the type of roll paper whose heat-sensitive side is on the
outside of the roll.
Loading the Paper
15
Use paper that is not deformed or loosened, as shown below.
Loading Paper
A Press the Power Button to turn ON the power.
B Push the Cover Open Lever down to open the Paper
Cover.
IMPORTANT
Be careful not to apply excessive force to the Paper Cover. Doing so may
result in malfunctions.
C Load paper in the right direction in the printer.
Normal Deformed paper (pushed down)
Deformed paper (pushed out) Loosened paper
16
D Slightly pull the edge of paper, and then close the Paper
Cover while pulling the paper forward so that the paper
will not be loosened.
The Status LED is lit green, and the printer is ready to print.
IMPORTANT
Make sure to close the Paper Cover completely by pushing the protrusion
in its center. If you push the edge of the Paper Cover, it becomes in a
semi-locked state and may not be able to feed paper.
Load the paper so that when you close the Paper Cover, the paper is not
pressed against the paper output section or askew. Otherwise, the paper
may be fed at an angle and paper jams may occur.
E Press the Paper Cutter Button.
If paper is cut properly, paper is loaded properly.
A Press and hold the Power Button to turn OFF the power.
B Press the Power Button while pressing the Feed Button to
turn ON the power.
The test print starts. The test print is performed repeatedly until
you stop it.
C Press the Feed Button to stop the test print.
NOTE
The test print stops if a printer error such as “Paper End” or “Paper Cover
Open” etc. occurs. Once the error is cleared, the test print resumes.

Cautions When Printing
Do not touch or pull paper during printing. Printing may not be
performed properly, or paper jams may occur inside the printer.
• Do not cover the paper output section during printing. Doing so may
result in paper jams.
Do not apply external impact during printing. Doing so may make
some text missing in print out.
When using the printer in a place subject to vibrations, paper is
loosened due to vibrations, some text may be squeezed together in
print out. Check the installation location thoroughly when using the
printer.
Do not perform printing with no paper loaded and the Paper Cover
closed. Doing so may result in rubber roller wear, damage to the
thermal printhead, etc.
Do not damage or stain the rubber part, shaft bearing part, platen
gear, etc. of the Platen Roller. Doing so may result in malfunctions.
Make sure that no oils or fats, or foreign substances adhere
especially to the rubber part.
The top and side surfaces of the metal parts may discolor, etc.
However, this does not affect the function of the printer.
If hand fats adhere to the thermal printhead, its life may be
shortened. Should oils or fats, or foreign substances adhere to the
thermal printhead, clean it immediately. (See “Thermal Head” in
“Daily Cleaning” on p. 22.)
When opening or closing the Paper Cover, do not hold the Platen
Roller. Doing so may deform the Platen Roller.
When using new rolls of carbonless copy paper made for receipt
printers on which an adhesive is used to prevent unraveling of the
roll, the print quality on the adhesive surface may be unclear.
