Cleaning the Platen

NEVER use a sharp object on the Platen.
CAUTION
A Platen contaminated with grit, label adhesive or ink can cause a decline in print quality and, in extreme
cases, cause labels to wrap the roller. Clean the Platen as follows:
1. Turn OFF and unplug the printer.
2. Open the cover. Raise the Printhead Assembly and remove the media.
3. Using a Cotton Swab (or lint-free cloth) dampened with isopropyl alcohol wipe the Platen, manually
rotating the roller until the entire surface is clean. Allow the Platen to dry.
