6. Maintenance and adjustment

6-1. Cleaning the print head

Dirt on the print head or ribbon, or glue
residue from the label liner may result in
inadequate print quality. The printer cover
must therefore always be closed. Keeping
dirt and dust away from the paper or
labels ensures a good print quality and a
longer lifespan of the print head. Here is
how you clean the print head:

1.

Switch off the printer.

2.

Open the printer cover.

3.

To remove any label residue or other
dirt from the print head (see blue
arrow), please use a soft lint-free
cloth dipped in alcohol.

Note 1

The print head should be cleaned once a
week.

Note 2

Please make sure that there are no metal
fragments or other hard particles on the
soft cloth used to clean the print head.


6-2. Adjusting the cutter

While using the cutter, paper jams may
occur.
You can solve this problem by adjusting the
cutter.

1.

Turn the printer upside down. A screw
is located on the bottom of the cutter
housing.


2.

Unscrew the screw and remove the
housing.

3.

The adjustment screw is located on
the side of the cutter. Use a
screwdriver and turn the screw
anticlockwise to loosen the cutter
blade and pull out the jammed label.


4.

When you have cleared the jam, turn
the screw clockwise to secure the
cutter blade again.
