6.2 Cleaning the Printhead

When print quality begins to degrade the typical cause is a dirty

printhead. Unreadable barcodes, print drop-out areas, streaking and

smudging are all possible symptoms. In addition, if this build-up is

left on the printhead it will greatly reduce it’s life. Follow this simple

procedure to clean the printhead:

n Turn ‘Off’ and unplug the printer.

o Open the cover.

Raise the Head-Lift Lever ‘up’ to access

the printhead. Move ribbon or paper away as necessary.

p Gently wipe the underside of the printhead clean using a

cotton swab moistened (not soaked) with isopropyl alcohol.

Allow to dry.

q Re-install ribbon and media, if necessary. Lower the

printhead by turning the Head-Lift Lever ‘down’ until it locks

into position.

r Close the cover. Plug in and turn ‘On’ the printer. Feed

several labels to normalize label tracking.
