Section 4: Troubleshooting and Maintenance

A. CLEANING THE PRINTER

It may be necessary to clean the ink cartridge nozzles if the your labels are printing with horizontal banding or if you suspect an ink cartridge nozzle has become slightly dried out or clogged. Refer to the cleaning procedure explained within the Clean/ Purge description of Section 2-D to clean the cartridge nozzles.

If any ink has gotten on to the printer casing itself, the case of the printer can be cleaned with an ammonia based window cleaner and a lint-free cloth.

Over time, ink overspray may gather at the base of the printer. The printer is designed using a vacuum system to gather most of this ink on a series of saturation pads. Eventually, these pads may need to be replaced. Contact tech support to determine if pad replacement is necessary. An ink pad replacement kit is available. (Part Number 074220)

B. CLEANING THE INK CARTRIDGE

It may be necessary to clean the ink cartridge nozzles if you notice reduced print quality, or if you suspect an cartridge nozzle has become slightly dried out or clogged. If you are having print quality problems, follow the steps below:

1.Remove the print cartridge.

2.Moisten a lint-free cloth with water.

3.Hold the cloth against the

nozzles for three seconds. This will “wick” some additional ink onto the damp cloth.

4.Wipe in one direction only.

5.Repeat the process.
