Replacing The Platen Roller - SATO CL4NX Operator's Manual

Replacing the Platen Roller

You can easily remove and replace a damaged or worn platen roller.
• Do not touch the power button, connect or disconnect the power cord while your hands
are wet. Doing so could cause an electric shock.
• Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet before you replace the platen roller.
Guideline to Replace the Linerless Platen Roller (CL4NX only)
The linerless platen roller has a blue striped marking on the left side. When the blue striped marking
started to fade off, it indicates that you should replace the linerless platen roller.
• This is only a general guideline. The condition in which the platen roller wears out
varies depending on the used media. In any cases, replace the worn platen roller when
it affected the printing quality of the printer.
1. Make sure that the printer is powered off, and disconnect the power cord from the
AC outlet.
2. Open the top cover.
• Open the top cover fully to prevent accidental drop of the cover.
3. Push the head lock lever (1) towards the rear to unlock the print head.
• The print head and its surroundings are hot after printing. Be careful not to touch it, to
avoid being burned.
• Touching the edge of the print head with your bare hand could cause injury.
