1.Open the printhead.

2.Remove the labels and ribbon (if loaded).

3.Moisten an applicator tip with solvent and wipe along the print elements from end to end. (The print elements are on the brown strip just behind the chrome strip on the printhead.)

Allow a few seconds for the solvent to evaporate.

4.Rotate the platen roller and clean thoroughly with solvent and an applicator.

5.Brush or vacuum any accumulated paper lint and dust away from the rollers.
