Cleaning the platen (print roller)
Applies to printers configured for linered media only
• Open the printer by squeezing the finger grips on either side of the media
compartment cover and swinging it open.
• Gently clean the platen with the cleaning pen supplied with the printer and/or alcohol
and a cotton swab while rotating the platen.
Cleaning the Media Sensor
The Media sensor is located inside the media compartment under the print
head. Blow out any dust deposits carefully, then finish cleaning with the
cleaning pen supplied with the printer and/or alcohol and cotton swabs.
The Cameo 2
plus
has a Sensor Assembly that is mounted external to the printer
mechanism. (Refer to detail on the previous page). The same cleaning
procedure should be followed for this sensor, paying particular attention to
cleaning dust from within the gap the media passes through.
Linerless Media Printers
Printers using linerless media require more frequent cleaning. Linerless media
deposits adhesive which must be removed for optimum performance. Linerless
printers can be identified by a platen which is not black, or by reading the unit’s
fifteen digit Product Configuration Code (PCC) label on the back of the printer.
PCC digit “8” will be “B”, “”D”, “F”, or “H” for linerless printers.
Note: It is not necessary to clean the platen on linerless units. The platen
material is self cleaning and will not require constant maintenance.
When cleaning, use only the Cleaning Pen provided with each
printer or isopropyl alcohol.
• Open the printer by squeezing the finger grips on either side of the media
compartment cover.
• Surfaces inside the media compartment that come in contact with the linerless media
adhesive should be cleaned, along with:
• Print mechanism area around the Sensor
• Printhead
• Inside surface of the edge guide
Allow printer to dry before resuming printing.
