printer.

Holder Plate.

6.  Remove the jammed media from the printer.  DO NOT USE any sharp 
implements or tools as these could damage the printer.  
7.  Clean the Print Head and Platen, then remove any further dust or 
foreign substances.  
8.  Paper jams in the Cutter Unit can be caused by wear or residual glue 
from label stock on the cutter.  Do not use non-specified media in the 
cutter.   
 
CAUTION! 
When removing the jammed media, be careful not to damage the 
print head with a hard object like a watch or a ring. 
          
 
 
 
 
 
Since the print head element can be easily damaged by shock, please 
treat it carefully by not hitting a hard object against it.   
 
 
CAUTION! 
Do not use any tool that may 
damage the Print Head. 
NOTE: 
If you get frequent jams in the 
cutter, contact a TOSHIBA TEC 
authorised service 
representative.
