Lubrication

CAUTION! No lubricating agents of any kind should be used on this printer! Some commercially available lubricants, if used, will damage the finish and the mechanical parts inside the printer.

Printhead Pressure Adjustment

Printhead pressure is adjustable to insure maximum print quality. Refer to Figure 13 and rotate the Pressure Adjustment Dials(s & t) clockwise to increase the pressure or counterclockwise to decrease the pressure of the printhead against the ribbon and/or media.

The amount of pressure required varies from one application to the next and is determined by the type and thickness of the media as well as the media width.

If using narrow media, you may need to reduce the pressure applied by the right hand dial to minimize the pressure over the unused printhead area.
