Using Cotton Buds
Important!
Use a soft implement such as a cotton bud to clean the printer head and rubber roller. We recommend using the slimmest available cotton buds.
-
Set the printer down on its side and remove the cover.
-
Wipe the surfaces of the printer head and rubber roller clean with a cotton bud moistened with alcohol.
See steps 2-3 in “Installing Tape Cartridges” for information on how to remove the cover.
If a tape cartridge is loaded in the printer, remove it.
Important!
Because the printer head is hot during and immediately after printing, wait sufficient time before removing the tape cartridge.
Wipe the brown section of the printer head that makes contact with the rubber roller (the area between the dotted lines) particularly firmly.

Cleaning the Exterior of the Printer
Use a soft cloth moistened with water to clean the exterior of the printer. Be sure to completely wring out all excess liquid from the cloth before wiping. Never use benzene, alcohol, thinners, or other volatile agents, which can damage the printer.
