other pollution materials stuck in the printer head or inside the printer.
When dirty, clean the print head as follows:

- As the print head gets very hot during printing, if intending to clean the print head, turn
the printer power off and wait approximately 2~3 minute before commencement.
- When cleaning the print head, take care not to touch the heated portion of the print
head.
→ Printer Head is susceptible to damage from static electricity, etc.

- Be careful not to get your fingers pinched when opening or closing the paper cover.
Make sure to open the paper cover all the way until it locks into the open position.

roll and the paper holder.
- Do not touch the cutter with your hands or do not put something into the cutter. Doing

1) Open the paper cover and Ribbon Assembly and then use the cleaning pen to clean the
head in the direction from the center of the head to the edges.
