11. DAILY MAINTENANCE
Please clean the machine every day after the business hour finished so that you can always obtain
satisfactory performance of the machine. Since the print head and the platen easily get dirty, cleaning
is recommended whenever the media is replaced.
11.1 Cleaning
11.1.1 Print Head
1. Turn off the power switch.
2. Pull out the label cassette.

with the scale.
NOTE: Please purchase the print head cleaner (P/No. 24089500013) from your authorized TOSHIBA
TEC service representative.
WARNING!
1. Do not pour water over the scale or wipe it with soaked cloth. If water enters into the machine
inside, a fire or electric shock may occur.
2. Be sure to turn off the power before cleaning. Failure to do this may cause a fire or electric shock.
3. Do not use thinner or benzine for cleaning, as this may cause a fire.
4. Do not touch the print head or around it just after printing. You may get burned as the print head
becomes very hot during printing.
CAUTION!
1. Do not use a sharp object for cleaning the print head or platen. Doing so may damage them,
causing a print failure or machine failure.
2. Do not use thinner or benzine for cleaning. Doing so may cause a print failure, machine failure, or
discoloration.
3. Do not touch the print head element, as static electricity may damage the print head.

Doing so may cause a machine failure.
