Maintenance
• document protectors, envelopes, and sheet separators containing polyvinyl
chloride or other vinyl chlorides
non-thermal chart papers or any other products containing tributyl phosphate,
dibutyl phthalate, or any other organic solvents

Many medical and industrial charts contain these chemicals.
• NOT use mounting forms, pressure-sensitive tapes, and labels that use solvent-
based adhesives.
Use only mounting forms and pressure-sensitive tapes made with starch or water-
based adhesives.
Clean the Printhead
If the printer does not function, you may need to clean dust and foreign particles from
the printhead.
Use below procedure to clean the printhead:
1. Dip cotton swabs in ethyl alcohol and wring out the excess solution.
NOTE:
Do not use products that can harm the heating element, such as sandpaper.
2. Open the printer door.
3. Gently wipe the heating element with the cotton swabs.
NOTE:
• The printhead gets hot when recording. Do not touch the thermal
printhead directly.
• Avoid unnecessary force when handling the printhead.
4. Re-insert the paper and close the printer door when the heating element is
completely dry.
NOTE:
Use only original GE Healthcare writer paper. This paper has a special coating
that prevents electrostatic buildup and contamination and debris collection
on the printhead. Using other paper may result in recordings of poor quality.
Use of other papers may wear out the printhead prematurely and may void
the warranty.
Charge the Battery
You must charge the battery before initial use and in between acquisitions.
• To make sure a fully charged battery before initial use, charge the device before
you use it for the first time.
