Open the print head assembly by pushing the head
latch toward the rear of the printer. The print head
assembly is spring-loaded and will automatically
open as soon as the head latch is disengaged.
Apply any SATO approved thermal printer cleaner to
a clean wipe.
The platen is the rubber roller directly below the print
head. It should be cleaned of any ribbon or label res-
idue.
Repeat as necessary. The platen should be cleaned
whenever foreign matter such as dust or adhesive is
present.
