Important Notice
Thermal printhead can be easily damaged due to its precision construction. A printhead damaged by misuse is not covered under the terms of the warranty. To ensure longevity of the printhead, please
note the following:
1. DO NOT scrape or use tools that might damage the printhead surface.
2. To protect from corroding the printhead, DO NOT touch the printhead with bare hands.
3. Keep printhead from any form of liquid or dampness.
4. Use a Cotton Swab dipped in absolute alcohol to clean the printhead only.
5. Always use high-quality consumables: (1) When the printhead module is closed, pressure is placed directly onto the printhead; dirt such as paper scraps, sand, dust and glue can scrape or damage
the printhead. (2) The printhead is also easily damaged by thermal paper or thermal transfer ribbon, which contains Na, K or Cl.
So,always inspect consumables for quality before purchasing.
