10.3 Cleaning the printhead

Printing can cause accumulation of dirt at printhead e.g. by colour
particles of transfer ribbon, and therefore it is necessary to clean the
printhead in regular periods depending on operating hours,
environmental effects such as dust etc.

CAUTION!

Printhead can be damaged!

⇒

Do not use sharp or hard objects to clean the
printhead.

⇒

Do not touch protective glass layer of the printhead.

Figure 12

1. Open printer cover.

2. Turn lever (A, in Figure 11) counter clockwise to lift up the

printhead.

3. Remove labels and transfer ribbon from the label printer.

4. Clean printhead surface with special cleaning pen or a cotton

swab dipped in pure alcohol.

5. Allow printhead to dry for 2-3 minutes before commissioning the

printer.
