Care Of The Printer
Remove any paper cuttings or foreign objects from the paper cabin to ensure
smooth operation of the paper roll.
Clean your printer at regular intervals with a commercially available cleaner for
sensitive surfaces (alcohol solvent is recommended). Never use acidic solvents.
Carefully clean the cutter area to remove paper dust.
Before cleaning make sure that the
power is switched off,
the power
supply plug is disconnected and that no moisture gets into the printer.
Cleaning The Print Head
The printhead should be cleaned, when the printout becomes lighter or there are
vertical columns on the printout. Before cleaning, let the printhead cool down first by
turning off the power. (The thermal print head is very sensitive to scratches. Clean
the head using only non-abrasive cloth & alcohol solvent.)
Cleaning Paper-End/Paper-Near-End Sensors
When any of the sensors behave abnormally, wipe the sensor using a soft cloth and
alcohol solvent.
Cleaning The Platen Roller
When there are paper misfeeds or the roller is dirty, please clean the platen roller.
Wipe off any stains or dust from the roller.
CAUTION:
Never use any sharp object like screw driver as a cleaning tool. This will
damage the printer.
