Cleaning Sensors
Refer to Figure 6 on pg. O-18
Bar/Gap Sensor:
• The Bar/Gap sensor is located in the right side of the
media compartment behind the platen. Blow out any
dust deposits carefully, then finish cleaning with a
swab saturated in alcohol.
Label Presence Sensor:

side of the print head. Remove any material blocking
the lenses, blow out any dust deposits carefully, then
finish cleaning with a swab saturated in alcohol.
Linerless Printers
Refer to Figure 6 on pg. O-18
Printers configured for linerless media require more
frequent cleaning. Linerless media deposits adhesive on
the printer which must be removed for optimum perfor-
mance. 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. Digit “8” of the PCC for linerless printers will
be a “B”, “D”, “F”, or “H”.
Always turn the printer off prior to any cleaning operation.
• Open the printer.
• Remove the media and edge guide
• When cleaning, use only isopropyl alcohol, the same
type used in the Cleaning Pen provided with each
printer. Surfaces indicated by the ✔ symbol should be
cleaned along with:
• Latch area • Area around the Bar/Gap Sensor
• Printhead • Paper spool areas
Allow printer to dry before resuming printing
