Accumulation of paper powder or foreign matter between the thermal head and platen roller
deteriorates the print quality. Clean the head elements and platen roller surface using alcohol
and a cotton swab. Wait until the alcohol dries then close the recorder door.
Do not clean the recorder immediately after recording because thermal head and
its surrounding area are hot during and after recording.
