DAILY MAINTENANCE
At the time of maintenance, be sure to turn off the power switch of the printer and unplug it from the
socket.
Use a dry soft cloth to wipe off stains and dust from the surfaces of the main body case. For severe
soiling, dip the cloth in water and wring it, for wiping off the soil. Never use organic solvents, such as
alcohol, thinner, trichlene, benzene, ketone, or chemical dusters.
If the equipment is contaminated with paper powder, use a soft brush to clean it. Be careful not to
damage the printing head.
CAUTION: The printing head and motor are very hot. Be careful not to touch them immediately
after printing. Do not touch the heating surface of the head with a bare hand or metal.
Cleaning the Printing Head
1. Referring to "4.5 Removing Paper Jam," detach the platen roller unit.
2. Moisten gauze slightly with alcohol, and clean the heating surface of the printing head with it.
3. Reattach the platen roller unit.
CAUTION: The printing head and motor are very hot. Be careful not to touch them immediately
after printing. Do not touch the heating surface of the head with a bare hand or metal.
When detaching or reattaching the platen roller unit, be sure to raise up the printing
head; otherwise, they could be damaged. Handle the detached platen roller unit
carefully so as not to damage it.
