Thermal Head

vLines may appear on the card after printing if the thermal head is
dirty.
vClean the thermal head after printing about 10,000 images.
Cautions:
vIf the security lock is on, deactivate it. After work is complete,
activate the security lock again.
vStart work after ensuring that the power has been turned off.
vStand the cassette on a flat surface as illustrated in the diagram.
Avoid doing so on the floor as dust attached to it may cause printing
errors.
.
vDo not perform any work on the printer door. Do not place heavy
objects or apply load on the printer. Doing so may damage it.
vTouching the thermal head with your body electrostatically charged
may cause damage to the head. Make sure that you touch the
metallic part of the printer before commencing work.
vPay attention to prevent metallic objects from knocking against the
thermal head. Doing so may damage it.
vAfter cleaning is complete, check to ensure that all dismantled parts
are restored to their original positions. Failure to restore the parts
may result in malfunction of the printer.
