Printing is poor 

 

Ensure good quality thermal paper is used. 

Paper dust on the heating element of the thermal print head 

can lower the print quality. Try cleaning the print head as 

described below: 

Cleaning the print head. Caution

 

 

After printing, the print head can be very hot. Be careful not to 

touch it. Also let it cool before you clean it. Damage can occur 

to the print head if touched with your fingers or any hard 

object.

 

1.

 

Press the Lid release button to open the printer lid. 

2.

 

Clean the thermal element of the print head with a 

cotton swab moistened with an alcohol solvent 

(ethanol, methanol, or IPA). 

The Printer lid won’t open. The 

button doesn’t work as normal. 

If the Lid release button won’t depress fully and release the lid, 

check that the printer lid is completely shut. Press firmly in the 

center of the lid near the tear bar, then try pressing the release 

button again. Repeat this action repeatedly until the button 

opens the lid as normal. Once open, remove any paper roll, 

inspect the button mechanism and ensure it is operating 

smoothly. Ensure there is no debris in this mechanism. A strong 

blow of air is often enough to clear unwanted debris.  

If the above still does not open the lid, try grasping the lid on 

the sides and gently assisting it to open whilst depressing the 

button. If you still have trouble, please call your nominated 

Help desk. 

Paper is not feeding as normal 

Open the Lid of the printer and first inspect the paper. Ensure 

there are no joins/ abnormalities in the paper roll.  

Ensure the Rubber roller can turn freely. Use your finger on the 

gear to turn the roller. 

Inspect the rubber surface of the roller for dust and foreign 

particles. If dirty, refer to the ‘Maintenance’ section in this 

guide.
