Replacing the print head
As the print head has a very long lifetime, it is under normal circum-
stances hardly ever necessary to replace it.
Always take care not to print over the edge or on a fold or perforation,
as this can damage the needles of the print head. Damage of the
needles will lead to a bad print image.
Should the print head be defective, you can replace it. Proceed as de-
scribed below.
Be sure to switch the printer off before you replace the print head.
Removing the print head
Open the cover by grasping it at the right and
left-hand side and swing it upward until it
clicks into position.
