spill inside the printer. Fire or electric shock could result. If
any foreign object enters the printer, turn off the printer power
immediately, remove the power cord, and contact KODAK
Service and Support.
1. Wipe the exterior of the printer and trim tray with a damp, lint-free cloth.

The thermal print head becomes extremely hot during normal
operation. Wait approximately five minutes after you open the

thermal head. Never touch it with your bare hands or fingers.

entire length of the thermal print head, in one direction only. When you
clean the thermal head:
• Apply firm, even pressure.
• Make three passes along the thermal print head.
• Use a clean part of the pad for each pass.
