Maintaining the Stamper

To maintain your stamper at peak operating performance, follow these guidelines:

ƒƒ If printer speed slows down, replace all four

AAbatteries. Operating the stamper with low batteries will damage the stamper.

ƒƒ Immediately replace the lithium cell display battery if BATT appears in the display.

ƒƒ Always cover the battery compartment before printing.

ƒƒ Keep stamper away from moisture.

ƒƒ Avoid placing stamper in direct sunlight.

ƒƒ Before printing, ensure paper surface is dust free and print head is clean.

ƒƒ When printing, place the paper on an even surface.

ƒƒ To clean the exterior of the stamper and the battery compartment, wipe with a lint-free cloth. Remove dirt and smudges using a cotton ball and alcohol.

ƒƒ Ensure surroundings are clean and free of dust before performing maintenance on the stamper.

ƒƒ Perform stamper maintenance every three months to prevent particle accumulation on the print head.

ƒƒ Using tweezers, carefully remove any dried ink from the roller and then clean using a lint-free cloth or cotton ball and alcohol.

ƒƒ Clean stamper before storing if the stamper will not be used for an extended period of time.

Maintaining the Battery

The stamper checks the status of the display battery every hour. If the lithium cell display battery is low, BATT appears in the display.

IMPORTANT: If BATT appears in the display, change the lithium cell battery immediately. Operating the stamper on a low display battery may cause damage to the stamper.
