E. After the cleaning film has been run through the printer, turn OFF and unplug the

printer. Open the printhead. Using a cotton swab moistened (not soaked) with isopropyl

alcohol, gently clean the entire printhead surface. Allow the printhead to dry.

F. Reinstall media (and ribbon, if necessary). Plug in and turn ON the printer. Run a few

sample labels and examine them. If streaking is still present the printhead may need to

be replaced; otherwise, this completes the procedure.

5.6.7 Cleaning

the

Ribbon Path Components

(Thermal Transfer equipped models only)

When ribbon path components become caked with build-up, smooth ribbon flow can become
impeded. Clean the ribbon path components as follows:

A. Turn OFF the Power Switch and unplug the power cord from the AC Receptacle. Raise

the Cover then remove media and ribbon.

B. Using a Cotton Swab dampened with alcohol, wipe the Ribbon Idlers clean.
