CAUTION: Never use a sharp object, such as pinchers, to clean
between the print head and the platen (rubber roller). This can
damage the mask spring and print head.
2 Remove the clear plastic paper guide that seats the mask spring, if neces-
sary. Use your fingernails to loosen the base of the paper guide, then
pull the paper guide straight up from the printer mechanism.
3 Remove the metal mask spring from the paper guide and clean with a
quality cleaner. Replace if damaged.
4 Put the good, clean mask spring into the paper guide and install the pa-
per guide into the printer.
5 Close the paper bail, reinsert the print head, latch the two print head
locking tabs, and install the ribbon.
