A cleaning using the Cleaning Cards usually
suffices. However, a separate Print Head
cleaning using swabs can remove more
stubborn deposits when print anomalies persist.
To avoid deposits, only use foam-tipped swabs. CLEANING THE
PRINT HEAD
1. Turn power OFF. Raise Print Head
and remove the Ribbon.
2. Clean Print Head by moving alcohol-
moistened swab tip side-to-side across
Print Head elements. Only use moderate
force. (To reorder swabs see Appendix C).
3. Turn power ON. Allow two minutes
for the print head components to dry
before resume printing.
Never use a sharp object to scrape deposites from
the print head. Permanent damage will result.
