Maintenance, Service and Fault Finding
4-6 EPT033612 Issue 2 March 2018
Maintenance Schedule
The printer does not require component replacement as part of a
preventative maintenance routine. We recommend regular checks to ensure
optimum performance is maintained and to allow any parts requiring future
replacement to be identified early.
Frequency Recommended Actions
Regularly
(or if print quality
deteriorates)
Check condition and clean Print Head and
Rubber capstan roller each time the ribbon is
replaced (or at least once per day).
Check condition of the rubber platen / rubber
roller within the printer bracket. the rubber
surface must be smooth, flat and free of debris.
This should be a weekly check.
As part of any fault finding routine, check that
settings such as ‘Contrast’ and ‘Print Head
Pressure’ have not been modified in away from
the original values. Once set, these settings do
not generally need to be changed. Any changes
may have been made to compensate for other
problems. For example, the contrast or pressure
settings may have been set higher to compensate
for a print head that needs cleaning.
Every Year Check condition of the Ribbon guide rollers
(including those on the dancing arms). Check that
the plastic rollers rotate smoothly.
Every 2 years CAUTION: The following actions
should be performed with
the printer switched off.
Check the motion of the print head for horizontal
and vertical movement. Check that movement is
smooth and free from resistance. There should be
no lateral movement from the bearings.
Inspect condition of the Carriage drive belt,
checking for signs of fraying.
Check for and remove any debris that may have
accumulated around the print head / carriage
mechanism.
Apply grease to the linear bearings (only required
if in a dusty or high temperature (35°C - 40°C)
operating environment).
