As needed.

Peel bar

Clean it thoroughly with 90% medical-grade 
alcohol and a fiber-free cleaning swab.

Let alcohol dissipate and the printer dry 
completely.

Media path

Exterior

Water-dampened cloth.

Interior

Gently brush out printer.

Adhesives and media material can over time transfer onto the printer 

components along the media path including the platen and printhead. This build-up can 
accumulate dust and debris. Failure to clean the printhead, media path and platen roller 
could result in inadvertent loss of labels, label jams and possible damage to the printer.

Using too much alcohol can result in contamination of the electronic 

components requiring a much longer drying time before the printer will function properly.
