Important Operating
Notes
◆ Wear cotton gloves (provided with each roll of ColorSpan
media) when loading media to prevent fingerprints that
could show after printing.
◆ Protect the media at all times from creases and tears, and
ensure that the media is cut cleanly. Do not rest or store a
media roll on end, or you could cause edge creases that
could strike the printheads during printing.
◆ Always use a lint-free cloth moistened with plain water to
clean the printhead.
◆ DO NOT touch the printhead’s ink jet nozzles (the metal
plate on the bottom of the printhead) with your fingers. Any
contaminants could clog the ink jet nozzles.
◆ DO NOT touch the electrodes on the back of the ink print-
head. This could result in a faulty electrical connection,
which would cause jets to misfire.
◆ DO NOT clean the printhead surfaces with a dry cloth or
paper towel.
◆ DO NOT set heavy objects on the power cord or printer
cable; do not bend the cables or force them into contorted
positions.
◆ DO NOT place heavy objects anywhere on the printer.
