8. Cleaning and General Maintenance
IMPORTANT! Always turn the printer OFF before cleaning, performing
maintenance or loading supplies. Always wait at least 5 seconds before turning
the power back ON.
Basic cleaning of print head, cutter and platen roller will prolong the printer’s life and help
produce crisp, clear labels and signs. Refer to Section 2.1, Printer Parts, for additional
cleaning and maintenance information. You can also view a DuraLabel PRO/PRO 300
