Cleaning Internal Printer Print Head
Description The print head should be cleaned when broken or light characters occur
in a vertical line on the page. To maintain a high quality print, clean the
print head after 200 to 300 prints.
The print head is cleaned with a special cleaning paper which is supplied
with the instrument.
WARNING The paper tear-off edge is SHARP. This edge is exposed when the
printer cover is raised. Note the CAUTION SHARP EDGE label
on the cover.
HOW TO: 1 Open the printer as for changing the paper. See "Changing Internal
Printer Paper " page 122.
If printer paper is fitted, remove it from the printer.
2 Feed the cleaning paper into the top entry of the print mechanism with
the rough black side, which contains the cleaning material, towards
the rear of the printer.
3 When the automatic feed is complete and the paper stops moving use
the instrument front panel key to move the cleaning
paper through the print mechanism.
4 Remove the cleaning paper and replace the normal printer paper. See
"Changing Internal Printer Paper " page 122.
NOTE Retain the cleaning paper. It is designed to last for the life of the printer.
