MAINTENANCE
The Cameo PEP will provide reliable service if a few
simple guidelines are followed. The printer should be
cleaned approximately every two weeks or more often,
depending on usage and the type of media being em-
ployed. Components of the printer that require periodic
maintenance are the print head, print roller (platen), and
the media sensor. When cleaning, please use only
isopropyl alcohol.. Always use Zebra label or ticket stock
for maximum print quality and extended printer life.
Cleaning the print head:
1.Always turn the printer off prior to any cleaning
operation.
2.Open the printer by squeezing the finger grips on
either side of the media compartment cover.
3.Swing the media compartment cover open.
4.Use the cleaning pen supplied with the printer and/
or alcohol and cotton swabs to clean the surface of
the print head.
Cleaning the platen (print roller):
1.Open the printer by squeezing the finger grips on
either side of the media compartment cover and
swinging it open.
2.Gently clean the platen with the cleaning pen
supplied with the printer and/or alcohol and a
cotton swab while rotating the platen.
Cleaning the Media Sensor
The Media sensor is located inside the media compart-
ment under the print head. Blow out any dust deposits
carefully, then finish cleaning with the cleaning pen sup-
plied with the printer and/or alcohol and cotton swabs.
