Cleaning the Printhead
In order for the printhead to provide good print quality, it must maintain
close contact with the media. Therefore, cleaning media debris from the
printhead is very important. Clean after every roll, or 15,240 centimeters
(6,000 inches), of media or when necessary. There are two ways to clean
the printhead:
• Use the cleaning card.
• Use a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol.
Do not use sharp objects such as knives or screwdrivers to scrape the
printhead clean. Cleaning with sharp objects will damage the
printhead. Clean with only a cotton swab, or a clean, lint-free cloth or
tissue damp with isopropyl alcohol.
Attention: N’utilisez pas d’objets pointus tels que couteaux ou
tournevis pour nettoyer la tête d’imprimante. Nettoyer avec des objets
pointus endommagera la tête d’imprimante. Nettoyez-la seulement
avec de la ouate ou avec un linge propre et libre de peluches, humecté
avec de l’alcool d’isopropyl.
To clean the printhead using the cleaning card
1 Turn off the printer and remove the power cord.
2 Remove the media cover.
3 Disengage the printhead by rotating the head lift lever clockwise until
the printhead releases. This raises the printhead so that you can clean it.
4 Remove the media and ribbon.
5 Open pouch and remove cleaning card.
6 Insert cleaning card into the printer following the media path.
