IMPORTANT PRINTHEAD AND RIBBON INFORM
ATION
HEAD CLEANING
The use of any thermal transfer ribbons, other than those supplied by UBI, will invalidate
the printhead warranty.
UBI thermal transfer ribbons are engineered specifically for this printhead.
The quality of thermal and thermal transfer media supplies in this printer is also of great importance
for the quality of printing bar codes and a long life of the printhead. UBI has carefully matched the
paper we recommend/provide to the needs of this printer. We therefore strongly advise of using
only UBI recommended/provided supplies to ensure a high quality printing.
For optimum performance,
the thermal printhead requires
cleaning on a regular basis.
For cleaning information, see
the User's Manual.

3. Hatches and Doors
3.1 Right-Hand Door
The right-hand door gives access to:
• The paper supply
• The ribbon supply
• The print mechanism
The right-hand door is fitted to the bottom plate by means of two
hinges that allow the door to be swung down 180˚ to a vertical
position. The door is kept shut by means of a magnetic lock. The
door can easily be removed from the hinges by pushing it forward
until the snap-lock at the rear hinge becomes disengaged.
At the inside of the door, there is a label showing how to load the
paper and the transfer ribbon.
The hinges can be adjusted by means of the two pairs of #T10 Torx
screws visible on the outside. Possibly, the other parts of the hinges,
which are fitted to the bottom plate, may require adjustment too.
Shut the door, loosen the screws slightly and align the door with the
front moulding. Tighten the screws and check that the door runs
freely and is kept shut by the magnetic lock.
