58 EasyCoder PD42 Printer User’s Guide
Cleaning the Media Compartment
Regular cleaning of the printer’s media compartment ensures
smoother printing operation and avoids problems with media
jams.
Use a soft cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol to clean the
inside of the printer. Be sure to keep the following parts clean:
• Drive roller and tear bar
• Media edge guides and media path
•Label sensors
If there are stuck labels, or adhesive residue from labels, peel as
much as possible with your fingers, and then use isopropyl
alcohol to dissolve the remaining adhesive.
Cleaning the Exterior of the Printer
Make sure to keep the exterior of the printer clean, this will
reduce the risk of dust or foreign particles reaching the inside of
the printer and affect printer functionality.
Use a soft cloth, possibly moistened with water or a mild
detergent when cleaning the printer externally. Make sure to keep
the surface surrounding the printer clean as well.
Isopropyl alcohol [(CH3)2CHOH;CAS67-63-0] is a highly
flammable, moderately toxic, and mildly irritating substance.
If the printer is used in an environment where the premises are
cleaned by a water hose or steam, move the printer to another
room or cover it very carefully with a plastic sheet and make
sure that the power cord is unplugged.
