MAINTENANCE
The Encore 2 should be cleaned periodically (approxi-
mately every two weeks), depending on usage and the
type of media being employed.
Components of the printer that require periodic mainte-
nance are:
•The print head
•Platen (print roller) on printers configured for linered
media only. Linerless printers require no regular
maintenance for the platen.
• Label peeler components
•The bar/gap and label presence sensors.
When cleaning, use only isopropyl alcohol, as included
in the Cleaning Kit. Always use Zebra label or ticket
stock for maximum print quality and extended printer life.
