The exterior surfaces of the printer may be cleaned with a lint-free cloth.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents. If necessary, a
mild detergent solution or desktop cleaner may be used sparingly.

Inspect this area after every four rolls of media. Remove any dirt and lint
from the interior of the printer using a soft bristle brush and/or vacuum
cleaner.

Inconsistent print quality, such as voids in the bar code or graphics, may
indicate a dirty printhead. For best results, perform the following cleaning
procedure after every roll of ribbon.
NOTE: You do not need to turn off the printer before cleaning the
printhead. If power is turned off, all label formats and images, as
well as any temporarily saved parameter settings stored in the
printer’s internal memory, are lost. When power is turned back on,
you need to reload these items.
To clean the printhead, refer to Figure 27 and follow these steps:
1. Open the printhead.
2. Remove the media and ribbon (if loaded).
3. Moisten an applicator tip with solvent and wipe along the print
elements from end to end. (The print elements are on the brown strip
just behind the chrome strip on the printhead.) Allow a few seconds
for the solvent to evaporate.
