CLEANING PROCEDURES
Cleaning of the printer is a necessary maintenance activity to ensure print quality and long printer
life. There are two basic types of cleaning involved; the removal of loose debris and the removal
of residue.
Use a soft cloth and/or a pneumatic blower (pressurized air) to remove debris from the printer.
This process should be performed prior to the removal of residue. To remove residue, apply
SATO Solvent or isopropyl alcohol to a clean cotton swab and gently wipe the entire surface of
the print head, platen roller, and dispenser roller until clean.
It is recommended that the printer be cleaned after the printing of every two rolls of labels.
WARNING: DISCONNECT POWER SUPPLY TO THE PRINTER AND
ALLOW TO COOL TO ROOM TEMPERATURE PRIOR TO CLEANING.
WARNING: EXCERSIZE CARE WHEN CLEANING TO PREVENT
PERSONAL INJURY. THE TEAR BAR HAS A VERY SHARP EDGE.
CAUTION: IF USING A PNEUMATIC BLOWER TO REMOVE DEBRIS
FROM THE PRINTER, EXCERSIZE CARE TO PREVENT PRINT HEAD
DAMAGE.
