Cleaning the Media Guides

Both parts of the label stop sensor, which controls the media feed, are
covered by plastic guides. The guides are transparent to allow the light to
pass between the two parts of the label stop sensor. These areas (indicated
by a shade of gray in illustration #2 below) must be kept clean from dust,
stuck labels, and adhesive residue.
If the printer starts to feed out labels in an unexpected way, raise the
upper guide as described below and check for any object that may block
the beam of light (dust, stuck labels, adhesive residue, etc.). If necessary,
clean the guides using a cleaning card or a soft cloth soaked with
isopropyl alcohol. Do not use any other type of chemical. Be careful not
to scratch the guides.
