SR Troubleshooting
1. How to Clean the Thermal Head
2. When the Ribbon is Creased
Turn the power off.
→
Open the
cover.
→
Remove the ribbon.
Clean the thermal head,
especially the brown part at
the center.
(Use the cleaning
cloth or alcohol.)
When the positions of pay-off side
and take-up side of the ribbon are
not in a straight line, the ribbon is
creased and, as a result, a blur
occurs in a slanting direction.
Install the ribbon straightly (set
the both sides of the ribbon at the
center) and align the position of
the ribbon so as not to make a
wrinkle.
When no signs of improvement are shown,
replace the thermal head with a new one.
The thermal head may have reached the end
of its operational life.
