Replacing the Printhead
If you notice the characters or graphics
printed by your OKIMATE
are not fully
formed, with one or more dots consistently
missing, your printhead may need replacing.
Clean the printhead first, according to the di¬
rections on page 39 and then if the problem
still persists, replace the printhead. (Ordering
information available on page 44.)
To replace the printhead, remove it following
the steps described in "Cleaning Up" on page
39. Insert a new printhead in its place — mak¬
ing absolutely certain that the dark thermal
side of the printhead faces the paper and the
printhead carriage is in its upright position.
