Cleaning the print head
The active surface of the print head is a very
thin glass materials (segments). Under no circumstances should a hard, sharp object be used to scrape foreign matter from the print head surface or from any other surface in the printer. If the glass surface of the print head is damaged it cannot be repaired; the print head must be replaced. With the time and use, label adhesive, ribbon residue, and paper dust will build up on the active surface of the print head. If allowed to accumulate it will eventually reduce the print quality to the point at which voids will appear in the print image. It will drastically reduce print head life.
The print head should be cleaned at least
everyday. PROCEDURE 1. Set the printer’s main power switch to the OFF(0) position 2. Raise the front cover to the full upright position. 3. Rotate the print head lock lever to the open position. 4.
