Chapter 6 — Maintain the Printer

116 PC23 and PC43 Desktop Printer User Manual

Clean the Printhead

Cleaning the printhead on a regular basis is important for the life of

the printhead and for the print quality. You should clean the

printhead each time you replace the media. Follow this procedure to

clean the printhead using the cleaning card. If you need to clean

additional residue from the platen roller or tear bar, use a cotton swab

moistened with isopropyl alcohol.

1 Turn the printer off and disconnect the printer from power.

2 Open the printer and remove the media and ribbon (if installed).

3 Insert most of the cleaning card under the printhead, and then

lower the printhead.

4 Pull out the cleaning card and raise the printhead.

5 Wait for approximately 30 seconds to allow the cleaning fluid to

dissolve the residue.

6 Repeat Steps 3 through 5 if necessary.

7 If necessary, clean residue from the platen roller or tear bar with a

cotton swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol.

8 Once the parts are dry, replace the media (and ribbon) in the

printer.

9 Close the printer, reconnect power, and turn on the printer.

Caution: Never use hard or sharp tools to peel away stuck labels or

other material. The printhead is delicate and can easily be

damaged.
