52 Zebra S-Series User’s Guide

Inconsistent print quality, such as voids in the bar code or graphics, may
indicate a dirty printhead. For optimum performance, Zebra recommends
performing the cleaning procedure on the following page after every roll
of ribbon (perform this procedure after every roll of media for direct
thermal printing).
Note: Label Available Sensors are shown for location purposes only.
They are not standard on all printers.
