Maintenance
Dirt on the printhead or ribbon or glue residue from the label stock may result in inadequate print quality. The
printer cover must, therefore, always be closed during printing. Keeping dirt and dust away from the paper
or labels ensures a good print quality and a longer printhead lifespan.
Cleaning Steps
Here is how you clean the printhead
1.
Turn off the printer.
2.
Open the printer cover.
3.
Remove the ribbon.
4.
To remove any label residue or other dirt from the printhead (see purple arrow), please use a soft lint
free cloth dipped in alcohol.
*
The printhead should be cleaned once a week.
*
Please make sure that there are no metal fragments or other hard particles on the soft cloth used to clean the printhead.
