10. Secure the Printhead with the Captive Screw(s), but do not over-tighten. 
11. Clean the Printhead using alcohol and allow it to dry; see Section 5.4.1. 
12. Reload media, and ribbon (if removed), lower the Head Lift Lever into the locked position. Plug in 
and turn ‘On’ the printer. 
13. Print a Validation Label (see Section 4.4.4). Examine the printed label and, if necessary, adjust the 
Darkness setting (see Print Control / Custom Adjustments in Section 4.2.3) so that the print contrast 
(darkness) produced by the new Printhead matches the old Printhead. 
 Note: Following a printhead replacement, a Burn Line adjustment is NOT normally required. However, if print 
quality has changed, see Section 5.2.2.
