4•2 Cleaning the Print Head
A cleaning using the Cleaning System with cards usually suffices. However, a
separate Print Head cleaning using swabs can remove more stubborn deposits when
print anomalies persist. To avoid deposits, only use foam-tipped swabs.
1. ·Raise Print Head and remove the Ribbon.
2. · Clean Print Head by moving alcohol-
moistened swab tip side-to-side across Print
Head elements. Only use moderate force. (To
reorder swabs see Appendix C).
Never use a sharp object to scrape deposits from the
print head. Permanent damage will result.
