Heater Band Assembly
The heater band
fitted to this machine is faced with silicone rubber and
a piece of P.T.F.E. sheet, to prevent ‘strike-through’ of surplus ink back
onto the heater element. The pressing surface must be maintained in
good condition at all times. A worn pressing surface will always affect
the quality of printing. Do not insert items into the machine, which
could damage the printing surface.
