Operation

Cleaning Your You have easy access to all of the printer’s me- Printer dia path areas to allow for cleaning and clearing of media jams. You can clean the sensor areas, print head, platen roller and areas adjacent to

the media path surfaces.

Warning -Shock Hazard - See page vi.

Always turn the printer off before cleaning.

Warnung - Elektrische Gefahr - Zuerst abschalten dur Drucker. Säubern Sie jetzt den Drucker.

Use a brush or vacuum to clean the media path (except the print head). If necessary, use a lint-free cloth very lightly moistened with water to clean the platen. Let the platen dry before loading labels.

Warning - Static Discharge - See page vi. Never touch the print head. Always clean the print head with a cleaning pen (to protect the print head from static discharge and fibers).

If a label has become jammed in the printer, remove the label and any adhesive residue, immediately. Adhesive may spread through out the printer’s media path if not completely removed. Many adhesives are permanent and have short “set” times.
