PRINT HEAD & ROLLERS
Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine’s print head and rollers.
This is particularly likely whe n you are using the unit outdoors or in a very dusty
environment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a blank horizontal streak
may appear through the label text. Therefore, the machine’s head may need to be cleaned
from time to time.

To clean the print head and rollers:

1 Turn off the machine.
2 Remove the back cover, and then remove the tape cassette if one is installed. The print
head and rollers are located in the tape compartment.
3 Print head: Use a dry cotton swab to gently wipe the print head with an up-and-down
motion.
Rollers: Use a dry cotton swab to wipe each roller with an up-and-down motion while
rotating them with your finger.
4 Install a tape cassette, attach the back cover, and then try printing again.
5 If dust s till remains, use Pandu it Cleaning Ca ssette (LS 7-CLN).
If none of the above works, contact Technical Support at 866-871-4571.
