Preventative Maintenance

Brady recommends cleaning the printer on a regular basis using standard Brady printer parts and cleaning supplies. Consult your User’s Guide for further details.

Cleaning:

The exterior is cleaned with a lint-free cloth, and if necessary, a mild detergent solution or desktop cleaner. Interior components (printhead, platen roller, media sensor, peel bar, ribbon and media paths) are cleaned with alcohol or blown air to remove any particles.

Lubrication:

All mechanical parts are self-lubricating and do not require additional lubrication.

Print Registration:

Media registration and minimum label length are affected by media type and width, ribbon type and print speed. Performance improves as these factors are optimised. Brady recommends always qualifying any application with thorough testing
