Cleaning Internal Printer Print Head

The print head should be cleaned when broken or light characters occur in a vertical line on the page. To maintain a high quality print, clean the print head after 200 to 300 prints.

The print head is cleaned with a special cleaning paper which is supplied with the instrument.

The paper tear-off edge is SHARP. This edge is exposed when the printer cover is raised. Note the ! CAUTION SHARP EDGE label on the cover.

1Open the printer as for changing the paper. See "Changing Internal Printer Paper " page 122.

If printer paper is fitted, remove it from the printer.

2Feed the cleaning paper into the top entry of the print mechanism with the rough black side, which contains the cleaning material, towards the rear of the printer.

3When the automatic feed is complete and the paper stops moving use the instrument front panel key PAPER FEED to move the cleaning paper through the print mechanism.

4Remove the cleaning paper and replace the normal printer paper. See "Changing Internal Printer Paper " page 122.

Retain the cleaning paper. It is designed to last for the life of the printer.
