Cleaning The Thermal Head - Epson TM-P80 Benutzerhandbuch

English
Cleaning the Platen Roller/Paper Sensor
CAUTION:
Do not use an alcohol-based solvent. Use of an alcohol-based solvent
might cause the adhesive agent to partially dissolve making its removal
even more difficult.
When paper dust accumulates on the platen rollers or the paper sensor, follow the
steps below to clean them. To maintain good functional capabilities, clean them
regularly (every 6 months).
1. Turn off the printer, open the roll paper cover.
2. Clean the platen roller (N 18) and the paper sensor (N 19) with a cotton swab
lightly moistened with water.
3. Close the roll paper cover after the water has dried.

Cleaning the Thermal Head

CAUTION:
After printing, the thermal head can be very hot. Be careful not to touch it
and to let it cool before you clean it. Do not damage the thermal head by
touching it with your fingers or any hard object.
Do not use water. Use an alcohol-based solvent only.
Turn off the printer, open the roll paper cover, and clean the thermal elements of
the thermal head (N 20) with a cotton swab moistened with an alcohol solvent
(ethanol or IPA).
Epson recommends cleaning the thermal head periodically (generally every
3 months) to maintain print quality.
