malfunctions and the guarantee can expire.

Before a new transfer ribbon roll is loaded, the printhead must
be cleaned using printhead and roller cleaner (97.20.002). For
detailed information, please see page 86.
The handling instructions for the use of Isopropanol (IPA) must
be observed. In the case of skin or eye contact, immediately
