Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine's print head and rollers. This is particularly likely when you are using the unit outdoors or in a very dusty environment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a blank horizontal streak may appear through the text in the printed label. Therefore, as with a tape recorder, the machine's head may need to be cleaned from time to time. TO CLEAN THE PRINT HEAD Ê Turn off the machine. Ë Open the tape compartment cover, then remove the tape cassette if one is installed. The print head and rollers are located in the tape compartment. Ì Print head: Use a dry cotton swab to gently wipe the print head with an up-and - down motion. Rollers: Use a dry cotton swab to wipe each roller with an up-and-down motion while rotating them with your finger. Í Try printing again. If dust still remains: Î Repeat step Ì using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. If none of the above works, contact your service representative. 19
