Cleaning the Printhead
Always clean the printhead
♦ after using 7-10 rolls of supplies
♦ in extreme temperatures, humid conditions, or a dirty environment
♦ when you see voids in the print
♦ after a supply jam.
Cautions:
The following actions may damage the printhead and void your warranty.
♦ Do not use silicone to clean or lubricate.
♦ Do not use sharp objects to remove adhesive or label particles from the
printhead area.
♦ Do not touch the printhead with your fingers.
To clean the printhead:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Open the supply cover and remove the supply roll. See “Removing
Supplies” in Chapter 3 for more information.
3. Check the supply holder for adhesive buildup and clean it if necessary.
4. Ground yourself by touching a metal object other than the printer.
Grounding prevents
electrostatic discharge, which
may damage your printer.
5. Clean the printhead area of
all adhesive and label
particles using a Monarch
Cleaning Pen (#114226) or a
soft cloth moistened with
isopropyl alcohol.
6. Reload the supply and close
the supply cover.
