Platen Cleaning and Replacement
The platen (drive roller) normally does not require cleaning. Print operations tolerate some accumulation of
paper and liner dust on the platen roller.
Clean the platen (and media path) whenever the printer has significantly poorer performance, print quality
or media handling. The platen is the print surface and drive roller for your media. If sticking or jamming
continues even after cleaning, you must replace the platen.
Important • Contaminants on the platen roller can damage the printhead or cause the media to slip or stick when
printing. Adhesive, dirt, general dust, oils and other contaminants should be cleaned immediately off the platen.
