16. CLEANING THE PRINT HEAD
If the print head is dirty, printing will not be clear. The print head should be cleared with a print head
cleaner everyday before use, according to the following procedure:
1. Open the printer cover and turn the head-up lever to the anticlock wise. (See page 8-1)
2. Clean the print head element with the print head cleaner.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the print head when cleaning.
3. If any label paste is found on the label cutter, wipe off the paste with alcohol.
After removing the label cutter, reattach it using the following procedure.
1. Remove the receipt/label from the scale.
2. Install the label cutter, aligning the cutter notches with the screw holes.
3. Secure the cutter with the screws (FL-3 6) so the bottom of the cutter is 0.5 0.8 mm above
the peel-off plate.
NOTES:
1. If the cutter is scratching labels during printing, increase the clearance between the cutter and the
peel-off plate.
2. When the cutter is stained with glue or paper dust, clean it with a cotton swab moistened with
alcohol.
