  • Page 41 If there is no paper jam and the printer has been printing for quite a while, the print head may be overheated. If the print head is overheated, the printer will resume printing when the head has cooled (usually within two or three minutes).

  • Page 42: Cleaning The Paper Roll Print Head

    Paper roll printing is poor. Paper dust on the heating element of the thermal print head can lower the print quality. Try cleaning the print head as described below: Cleaning the paper roll print head CAUTIONS: After printing, the print head can be very hot. Be careful not to touch it.

  • Page 43: Paper Handling Problems

    2. If the paper is jammed in the paper roll section, press the cover open button to open the cover. Then remove the jammed paper and put the roll back in the printer and close the cover. If the paper is jammed in the slip section, open the front cover and remove the jammed paper.

    Notes on slip paper The slip paper must be flat, without curls or wrinkles, especially at the top edges. Otherwise, the paper may rub against the ribbon and become dirty. There must be no glue on the bottom edge. Choose slip paper carefully since paper feeding and insertion are affected by gluing conditions (such as glue quality, method, and length) and glue location (see the illustration below).
