Cleaning the Print Head and Roller 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Only use cleaning cloths from 
Imaje. These are specially 
designed for cleaning Imaje 
thermal printers. See chapter 
10.2 for correct type. 
 
Note: 
Frequent cleaning prevents 
print head and roller damage, 
and is especially important in 
demanding environments. 
 
•  Do not use liquids or 
aerosols when cleaning this 
printer.  
•  Never use sharp or pointed 
tools when cleaning or 
replacing the print head. 
 
Remove all media before 
starting: 
 
1. 
2. 
3. 
4. 
Tear the bag. 
 
Pull out the cleaning cloth. 
 
Pull the handle and feed 
the cloth into the printer in 
the same way as inserting 
the media (described in 
chapter 5.3). Fold the 
handle. Hold the cloth 
firmly and press the print 
button a few seconds. Hold 
on tight when the printer 
tries to force the cloth into 
the printer. (The cloth 
cleans the roller as it turns.)
 
Release the cloth and let it 
pass through the printer. 
(This cleans the print 
head.)
