Cleaning Head
※
Paper dust on the heating elements may lower the printer quality. In this case, clean the
print head as follows :
Cautions 1. Turn Off the printer power before cleaning.
2. Note that the thermal head becomes very hot during normal operation,
creating the danger of burn injury. Be sure to wait for about 10 minutes
after turning printer power off before beginning the cleaning.
1. Open the printer cover.
2. Clean the thermal element (the area which is marked a thin black line) of the
thermal head with a cotton swab moistened with a alcohol solvent (ethanol,
methanol, or IPA).
3. After confirming that the alcohol solvent has been dried up completely,
close the cover-open.
Note
1. Never touch the thermal element with your hand,
then the thermal element can be damaged.
2. Don't scratch the printer head.
