Chapter 3. Routine Maintenance

Cleaning of Thermal Head, Platen, and Decurl Roller

By using thermal transfer technology, daily maintenance is not really necessary if
the printer is being use properly. However, in order to keep the best print quality, it
is recommended to do the cleaning of Thermal Head, Platen and Decurl Roller once
in a month.

Caution: Make sure that the power is turned off before starting

cleaning.
Thermal Head reaches high temperature just after printing. Do not touch
directly by hand. Make sure that the thermal head has been sufficiently cooled
down before starting cleaning. When fingerprint stick to the heat element, it can
damage the Thermal Head. Do not touch directly by hand. Be careful not to be
hurt by the projections of the printer.
