You must clean the printhead as described below to
maintain printhead life.
CAUTION: Do not use sharp objects to clean the
printhead or touch the printhead. This may
damage the printhead and require a service
charge.
The rate and frequency at which you print determines how
often you must clean the printer. You may need to clean
the printhead, sensor, and platen roller:
 if there is any adhesive build-up in the supply path.
 after printing approximately three rolls
of thermal transfer/thermal direct
supplies or after each ribbon.
 daily if your printer is in an excessively
dirty, hot, or humid environment.
 if you frequently receive supply error
codes or when you see voids or
streaking in the print as shown.
1. Turn off the printer and open the
cover and printhead assembly.
2. Remove the label roll and ribbon (when cleaning the
printhead).
3. Press down on the exit cover tabs to open the exit
cover on the front of the printer.
