    IMPORTANT
    • Print speed may drop depending on the settings for the paper size, paper type, and print copies.
    • When you print the paper whose length is 264.4 mm or less continuously, the print speed may drop gradually. This is because the safety function that prevents damage caused by heat becomes active.
