*OUSPEVDJOHUIF.1SP*7
When you open a power distribution panel, you are confronted with an array of tightly packed terminals, circuit
breakers, and switches, and these myriad devices are connected by a maze of cables. If each device and cable
is not clearly labeled with a symbol or a number, maintenance can become a nightmare. In such electrical
facilities, it is common practice to use printed tube to identify cables and printed labels to identify switches. The
printer is used to print such labels and tube.
Easy yet high-quality
printing
1SJOUJOHUVCF
The M-1 ProIV can print
tube that identify cables:
“AB-01” or “+20V”,
for example. Because
the tube that is used is
available commercially,
the M-1 ProIV provides an
economical solution. The
M-1 ProIV can also be used
to print on heat shrink tube.
Label switches clearly
1SJOUJOHMBCFMT
The M-1 ProIV can also
be used to print label tape
(sold separately). Because
labels that correspond to
speci昀c cable tube labels
can be printed and applied to
the corresponding devices,
using such labels results in
improved ef昀ciency.

Main Features
1 Compactandeasytocarry
In addition to being compact at 250 mm (W) x 300 mm (D) x 85 mm (H), the printer also has a
lightweight design (2kg), making it easy to transport to the site of electrical facilities. Overall, the printer
greatly increases work efciency.
2 Fastprinting
When printing at fast speed, the printer can easily print 42 tube segments per minute.*
* When a tube is cut into to 20mm segments and ve “3mm 100%” characters are printed in the half
cutting mode. (This feature is available only for printing on tube.)
3 Supportsavarietyofprintingmedia
The printer can print on tube, label tape, heat shrink tube, wrap around tape, plate and 4mm I.D. strip.
(To print on other than commercially available tube and plate, a special cassette is needed.)
4 Awidevarietyofoptionsprovideexcellentadditionalcapability
The functionality of the printer can be expanded by installing a wide variety of options, including: the
“Tube Warmer”, which facilitates printing in cold (5°C) environments; the “Tube Feeder”, which permits
stable and precise printing on tube that is fed from a reel.
5 Manyfunctionsnotnormallyfoundinahand-portablemachine
Includes a variety of standard features such as adjustable character size, spacing and margins, and le
saving capabilities that are hard to imagine in such a light-weight machine.

Safety Precautions
In order to ensure safe operation of the printer, be certain to observe the following safety precautions.
The shape of the power plug varies according to country.
WARNING
Do not disassemble or modify the unit
Disassembling or modifying the unit could cause a re or damage the
unit.
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands
Do not attempt to plug in or unplug the AC adapter plug, etc., while
your hands are wet. Doing so could result in electric shock.
Do not place the unit in the vicinity of heating devices
Do not place the unit or the AC adapter cord in the vicinity of heating
devices. Doing so could cause the unit or the cord to melt, which could
result in re or electric shock.
Keep away from paint thinner, etc.
Do not place the unit near alcohol, paint thinner, or other ammable
solvents. The solvents could come into contact with internal electric
components and cause a re or electric shock.
Plug the power cord in securely
Be sure to plug the AC adapter plug into the power outlet securely.
Failing to do so could result in a re or electric shock.
Safety Precautions

6
Always keep the AC plug clean
Clean the AC adapter plug periodically. If dust, dirt, soot, etc., is
allowed to accumulate on the plug, the dust could absorb moisture,
creating an insulation fault that could cause a re.
Do not continue to use the unit if an abnormality develops
If the unit begins to smoke or emit an unusual odor, turn the power
switch off immediately, unplug the AC adapter plug from the power
outlet, and then contact your nearest dealer. Continuing to use the unit
after an abnormal condition has developed could result in re or electric
shock.
Do not connect to a multi-outlet adapter or extension cord
Do not connect this unit to a multi-outlet adapter or extension cord.
Doing so could result in re or electric shock.
Do not power on with the power cord tied. It can cause re or electrical
shock.
Do not use sprays, etc., in the vicinity of the unit
Do not use ammable sprays in the vicinity of this unit. The spray
could come into contact with internal components of the unit, resulting
in a re or electric shock.
Do not clean with paint thinner, etc.
If it is necessary to wipe dirt off the unit, use gauze that has been
dampened with water and then thoroughly wrung out. Never use
ammable solvents such as alcohol, benzene or paint thinner. The
solvents could come into contact with internal electric components and
cause a re or electric shock.
Turn the unit off for cleaning
Before cleaning the unit, turn the power off and unplug the AC adapter
from the power outlet. Injury could result if the power switch is
inadvertently left in the “ON” position and the unit is put into operation.

7
Safety Precautions
Use a 100-240V AC power supply
Use only at the indicated power voltage.
Use at voltage between 100 and 240V AC. If not, it may result in re,
electrical shock or machine failure.
Do not use any AC adapter or cord other than the included
one
Use only the included AC adapter (K30120) and cord. Using any AC
adapter or cord other than the included one can result in re, electric
shock, or printer failure. Do not use the included AC adapter for any
other product. Fire or electric shock can result.
When it thunders at a short distance, remove the power plug from the outlet
When it thunders at a short distance, remove the power plug from the outlet. If not, it may result in re,
electric shock, or machine failure.
Do not damage the AC adapter and cord
Do not damage, pull excessively, or modify the AC adapter and cord. Do not place a heavy thing on the AC
adapter and cord. A short-circuit can be caused at the damaged portion, resulting in a re or electric shock.
