Only one pass of Save-a-Printhead film is required to remove contamination buildup,
and each strip of film can be used up to 10 times. Discard the strip when residue
buildup or other contamination is apparent.
If a replacement printhead is needed, Zebra strongly recommends using a product
from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to ensure that your printer and part
warranties remain intact and that the product performs optimally.
Caution • An improperly seated printhead data cable or power cable could result in
the printhead generating excessive heat that could cause harm if it is touched.
