10.
Locate the I-Mark sensor and the Gap sensor in the
middle of media path and near the print head. (See figures
to the right and on the previous page).
11.
Dab a cotton cloth with the same cleaning solution. Clean
any foreign matter from the exposed surface of the media
path and sensor.
12.
Repeat the cleaning process when it is necessary. The
platen roller should be cleaned whenever foreign matter,
such as dust or adhesive, is present.

4.3 HOW TO CLEAN THE PRINTER (CLEANING SHEET)

If certain stains on the print head cannot be removed easily with cotton swabs dabbed in cleaning solution,
use the cleaning sheet to clean or to clear such stubborn debris.
1.
Make sure the printer is powered off and disconnect the
power cable. If the optional battery pack is installed,
remove it as well.
2.
Lift the Top Cover.
3.
Remove the media.
4.
Place the head cleaning sheet between the print head
and the platen roller. The coarse side of the cleaning
sheet should face the surface of the print head with its
exposed elements.
5.
Close the top cover with approximately 25mm (1 inch)
of the cleaning sheet extended out of the printer.
6.
Using both hands, slowly pull the exposed cleaning
sheet outwards. This will remove any dirt stuck to the
print head.
7.
When the cleaning sheet has been removed, perform
steps 2 to 6 to repeat the cleaning procedure one or two
more times.
8.
When no more additional dirt appears on the cleaning
sheet after it has been pulled out, you can stop cleaning
with the sheet.
9.
Use the cleaning pen from the cleaning kit or use a
cotton swab moistened with head cleaner to gently
remove any remaining dirt from the print head.
