Cleaning the Sensors
Several sensors inside the label
compartment need periodic cleaning to
remove dust and other particles that may
have accumulated.
To clean the sensors
1 Press the label compartment release
and lift the cover.
2 Remove the label cartridge.
3 Remove the cleaning tool from inside
the label compartment cover.
4 Use the sponge end of the cleaning
tool to gently wipe the sensors using
an up and down motion (not side to side). See Figure 12 for sensor locations.
Cleaning the Cutter Blade
Clean the cutter blade each time you replace the label cartridge.
To clean the cutter blade
1 Press the label compartment release
and lift the cover.
2 Remove the label cartridge.
3 Insert a straightened paper clip (or
other pointed object) in the small hole
shown in Figure 13 to release the
cutter mechanism.
4 While pressing the paper clip down,
pull the cutter mechanism straight
out from the side of the label maker.
5 Place the cutter blade on a flat
surface with the blade side facing up.

clean both sides of the blade. See
Figure 14.
The cutter blade is extremely sharp.
