REPLACING THE PRINT HEAD
CL608e and CL612e
The print head on the CL6XXe printers is a user-replaceable item. If it becomes
damaged for any reason, it can be easily removed and replaced. Contact your local
SATO representative for information on obtaining a new print head.
Supplies needed:
No. 2 Phillips screwdriver (a magnetic tip is helpful)
1. Turn the printer off and remove the power cable.
2. Open the Label Access door.
3. Open the Print Head Assembly by pushing the Head Latch toward the rear
of the printer. The Print Head Assembly is spring-loaded and will
automatically open as soon as the Head Latch is disengaged.
4. Remove the ribbon from the Ribbon Rewind Spindle if necessary.
5. View the Print Head Assembly from the front of the printer. Locate the two
mounting screws on the top of the assembly. They are accessible through the two
holes in the Top Assembly Plate. Unscrew these two screws and set them
aside.
6. The Print Head should now be loosened from the top of the assembly by
grasping either side and carefully pulling it forward.
