Cleaning the

Print Head

As you use your printer, the print head may be-

come contaminated resulting in poor print qual-

ity. Whenever new labels are loaded into the

printer, the print head should be cleaned with a

cleaning pen.

Step 1

Open the printer and the print head carriage.

Step 2

Gently rub the cleaning pen across the dark

area of the print head.

Allow the print head to dry for 1 minute before

loading labels.

Do not touch the cleaning pen to the platen

roller. If necessary, gently wipe the platen roller

with a dry, lint-free cloth.
