Cleaning of the thermal head

To clean the thermal head, proceed as follows:

1

2 Attach the cleaning tip to the cleaning tip holder, and install the cleaning tip holder in the printer. The cleaning tip holder can be mounted in the same way as that of the ink ribbon cassette.

3 Insert the cleaning tip holder fully until it stops, then pull the holder out until the open window of the holder fully appears. Repeat the inserting/ pulling-out of the holder about three times.

Open window

Thermal head cleaning is finished.

4 Remove the cleaning tip holder from the printer, and remount the ink ribbon cassette in the printer.

Notes

Don’t moisten the tip with the cleaning liquid or water. A moistened tip may deteriorate the performance of the thermal head.

Especially when using the black tip, be careful not to insert/pull-out the holder too many times at one cleaning. The lifespan of the head may be decreased.

Be careful not to swallow the cleaning tips. Store them out of the reach of children.

Use the ink ribbon and paper contained in the same package. If the printer detects an incompatible combination, an error message appears in the printer window display and you cannot make printouts.
