Opening The Front Cover; Removing The Print Head Protector (Color Printer Only) - Star Micronics NX-2460 User Manual

4 Printer Setup

Opening the front cover

Hook your fingers under the two small tabs on either side of the front cover
and pull upwards to swing the front cover open.
Note:
You can completely remove the front cover from the printer. However, we
recommend that you normally leave it in place. The cover protects against
objects getting into the printer, and it cuts down on printer noise.

Removing the print head protector (color printer only)

If your printer is a color model, its print head will be enclosed in a protector that
guards against damage during shipping. Before using the printer, you must
remove the print head protector as shown in the following illustration.
