CLEANING AND
ADJUSTMENTS
CLEANING THE PRINTER
Cleaning the printer occasionally and keeping it well maintained will help it to
last longer and run better.
Remove paper dust periodically by using a vacuum cleaner or air compressor.
Caution: Do not use rubbing alcohol or petroleum-based chemicals to clean the
printer as these will damage the plastic parts Take special care not to
get any cleaner on the electronic components.
None of the internal parts of the printer require lubrication or routine
maintenance. Apply a common cleaner such as fantastik® or Formula 409® to
a damp cloth and gently wipe the surface of the printer.
CLEANING THE THERMAL PRINTHEAD
Under normal conditions the thermal printhead does not need cleaning.
If the print characters are not printing correctly, wipe the thermal printhead
with alcohol and a lint free cloth.
Caution: Do not get any alcohol on any of the other parts of the printer
mechanism or the cabinetry.
