Maintenance
2-1 Cleaning
SATO America printers need very little maintenance other than occasional
cleaning. Clean the printer body as required, using a soft cloth moistened with
a mild detergent cleaner.
Caution!
Do not use abrasives on the printer body. The finish may be ruined.
Clean the print head if it appears dirty or if print quality is poor.
To clean the print head:
ALSO REFER TO THE ACCOMPANYING ILLUSTRATIONS
1.
Lift open the top case.
2.
Press the two print head releases toward the rear of the printer to unlock the
print head. The print head will pop up slightly. Lift it up until it is fully
raised and latched in the up position.
3.
Using a SATO Direct Thermal Print Head Cleaning Sheet or a soft coth
moistened with 99% pure isopropyl or denatured alcohol, clean all dirt and
label residue from the print head, paying particular attention to the "burn
line" (the thin black line near the front edge of the print head).
Caution!
Do not clean the print head or platen roller using abrasive or
metallic objects or ammonia-based cleaners or other harsh
chemicals. These practices can cause serious damage and
will void the warranty.
4.
Wipe the platen roller with a cleaning cloth. To reach all portions of the
platen roller, press the .EED button. The roller will rotate 1/4 turn each
time you press the .EED button.
Caution!
Keep all objects clear of the platen roller when you press the .EED button.
