In order to continue your print jobs after any abnormal conditions have
been recovered, simply press the CANCEL button or restart the printer.
Make sure that the LED indicator is illuminated and not blinking and
remember to resend your files.

Before maintenance be sure to turn off the printer power.

1. Cleaning the print head

(TPH)


Addendum

Turn off the printer, open the cover, print head module and remove
the ribbon. Rub the print head with a piece of cotton which has
been moistened with alcohol. Check for any traces of black
coloring or adhesive on the cotton after cleaning. Repeat if
necessary until the cotton is clean after it is passed over the head.


If you use small labels ( label height is less than 30 mm ) and the area
near top is unprintable you can adjust the top margin slightly by the
following procedure.


1. Hold FEED ( or PAUSE ) button and count the blink times for READY

Note :

LED. Each blink stands for 1 pixel. For 0.5 mm you need 4 blinks.

The print head should be cleaned at least every time the ribbon is
replaced and more often depending on actual usage and conditions.

2. Release the button.

3. Restart the printer.

2. Cleaning the roller

4. Send data to printer to print again.

Using a cotton moistened with alcohol, clean the roll and rip off the
attached glue.

The roller should be cleaned whenever it has been in contact with
foreign materials such as dust or adhesives.

3. Cleaning the media compartment

Clean the media compartment with cotton which has been
moistened with a mild detergent. Every time a media roll is printed
this compartment should be cleaned to reduce the incidence dust.
