Failure rate
The reliability of the printer in financial applications, printing 15 million characters per year and 500 operations per day, is 0.5 failure per year, excluding options. This figure is the steady state condition after about one year of use. During the first year the failure rate is higher. Up to 1.5 failures per year at the beginning and about 0.75 at the end of the first year.

Definition of failure

A failure defined within the given failure rate is a hard individual fault in the electronics or hardware. All other faults are outside the given figure. Examples of faults outside the given rate are

- Handling errors by the operator
- Power Supply
- No fault found
- Document or other media errors
- Software failures
- Ribbon including cassette errors
- Magnetic strip errors or similar e.g. magnetic characters or OCR printouts
- Power failures caused outside e.g. lightning
- Systematic or epidemic failures
Preventive maintenance The printer requires scheduled periodic maintenance.
