In order to attain high productivity and a long life for your
printer, Intermec recommends that you regularly inspect the
printer and its environment to ensure that it is operated under
optimal conditions.
Keep the printer in a dry area, away from larger electrical motors,
welders and similar which might affect printer operation.
Clean your printer regularly, as described in the procedures
below, in order to maintain the quality of your labels and extend
the life of your printer.
