CLEANING PROCEDURES

Cleaning of the printer is a necessary maintenance activity to ensure print quality and longer printer life. There are tow basic types of cleaning involved; the removal of loose debris and the removal of residue.

Use a soft cloth and/or a pneumatic blower to remove debris from the printer. This process should be performed prior to the removal of residue. To remove residue, apply SATO Solvent or isopropryl alcohol to a clean cotton swab and gently wipe the entire surface of the print head and platen roller clean.

WARNING: DISCONNECT POWER SUPPLY TO THE PRINTER AND ALLOW TO

COOL TO ROOM TEMPERATURE PRIOR TO CLEANING. EXCERSIZE CARE

WHEN CLEANING TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY.

CAUTION: IF USING A PNEUMATIC BLOWER TO REMOVE DEBRIS FROM THE

PRINTER, EXCERSIZE CARE TO PREVENT PRINT HEAD DAMAGE.
