PREFACE
We appreciate your using Nitto Denko’s DURA PRINTER SL.
The DURA PRINTER SL is a thermal transfer label printer, which prints on and makes use of proprietary labels and
ribbons.
This manual explains how to manage and maintain the DURA PRINTER SL, maintaining it in optimum condition for as
long a period as possible. Please read through this “Instruction Manual” before use.
Please store the manual carefully when not in use.
The DURA PRINTER SL can be used in either of the following two ways.
1) After a Windows printer driver has been installed on a PC.
After the DURA PRINTER SL printer driver is installed on a PC, printing can be carried out via any Windows
application capable of printing image data.
For driver installation and setup procedures, refer to the “DURA PRINTER SL Printer Driver Instruction Manual”
on the accompanying CD.
Label printing software for FA, “Label Studio”, is available and makes label printing easier.
2) By transmitting exclusive commands (character data) from a PC or other devices to the printer and using fonts and
barcodes stored in the printer’s memory.
For information on the commands, refer to the “DURA PRINTER SL Command Reference Manual” on the
accompanying CD; for information on the interface required when issuing the commands, refer to the “DURA
PRINTER SL Interface Manual”. It is necessary for proper printing that the operator familiarize himself/herself with
the commands before transmitting these to the printer.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THE PRINTER
This section explains safety precautions which should be observed to operate the printer safely.
▪ Be sure to install the printer on level
ground and in a location where it will
not be subjected to vibration.
Otherwise, accurate printing cannot be guaranteed.
If the printer happens to fall, it may result in injury.
▪ Use only AC100V for power.
Operating the printer at a voltage other than that
specified may cause a fire.
▪ Use only the supplied power cable and
AC adapter.
▪ Be careful not to allow water to come
into contact with the main unit and
terminals.
Moisture on or in the equipment may cause a fire or
malfunction.
▪ Do not plug in or unplug the unit with
wet hands.
Doing so may cause an electric shock or short circuit.

PREFACE
VI
▪ Do not modify the power receptacle or
power cable.
Doing so may cause a fire or electric shock.
▪ Be sure to unplug the main unit from the
power outlet when installing the optional
unit.
▪ When carrying the main unit, do not lift it
by its top cover or arm unit.
Doing so may cause the top cover to come loose and
fall, resulting in injury or an equipment malfunction.
Be sure to carry the main unit with the top cover
closed.
▪ Open and close the cover carefully.
To avoid injury, keep your hands away from the area
where the cover opens/closes.
Do not allow the top cover to “slam” shut; continue
holding the cover until it is fully closed. Neglecting to
do this may result in injury or an equipment
malfunction.

PREFACE
VII
▪ Run the equipment on a constant power
supply, at a voltage which does not
fluctuate.
Do not run the printer at the same time as other
electrical appliances (including heaters, refrigerators,
cranes, press machines, etc) on the same or nearby
supply.
Doing so may result in a malfunction.
▪ Do not subject the unit to excessive
shock. It is a precision device and may
be damaged.
Never disassemble the unit. Disassembly may cause a
malfunction.
▪ When transporting the printer, first
remove the label roll and thermal
transfer ribbon.
▪ Do not locate the printer for extended
periods in a location exposed to direct
sunlight.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.
▪ Do not locate the printer in a location
where the temperature and/or humidity
are high.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.
▪ Use only labels and ribbons recommended
by NITTO DENKO corporation.
The labels face toward the spindle.
▪ Do not store label rolls and thermal
transfer ribbons in a location where the
temperature and/or humidity are high.
Doing so may cause a malfunction.

PREFACE
VIII
▪ Do not locate the printer in a dusty area.
Dust in the unit may inhibit accurate printing. Dust
and grit may not only cause a malfunction but also
diminish the longevity of the printer.
▪ When cleaning, wipe the printer using a
soft cloth, dampened with mild detergent
and/or water.
Never use thinner or other solvents. Doing so may
damage the unit or result in a malfunction.
