Cleaning Procedures
Figure 30 • Cleaning the Printhead and Platen Roller
Clean the Sensors
Brush or vacuum any accumulated paper lint and dust away from the printer sensors. Refer to
Figure 30. The transmissive sensor and ribbon sensor should be cleaned on a regular basis to
ensure proper operation of the printer. For printers with the peel-off, liner take-up, and/or
rewind option(s) installed, clean the take label sensor as well.
Note • If print quality has not improved after performing this procedure, try cleaning the
printhead with Save-A-Printhead cleaning film. This specially coated material removes
contamination buildup without damaging the printhead. Call your authorized Zebra reseller for
more information.
