3. Allow the printhead to dry.
4. Reinstall media (and ribbon, if needed). Close the cover. Plug in and turn ON the printer. Run a
few sample labels and examine them. If symptoms persist, use the Cleaning Card Procedure;
otherwise, this completes the process. If the CLEAN HEAD SCHEDULE has been set, enter the
menu and select RESET COUNTER; see Section 4.2.1.
Cleaning Card Procedure (for users of direct thermal media, or thermal transfer media with
wax/resin ribbon combinations; also for unsuccessful Cotton Swab cleaning attempts):
1. Open the cover and raise the Head Lift Lever. Wait a minute for the printhead to cool.
Remove media and ribbon.
2. Place a Cleaning Card under the printhead. (Use part number 70-2013-01 for 4-inch model
printers and 70-2014-01 for 6-inch model printers.)
3. Lockdown the Head Lift Lever and disengage the Leveling Cam; see Section 5.3.1.
