Cleaning The Thermal Head - Epson Mobilink TM-P80II Technical Reference Manual

Cleaning the Thermal Head

Epson recommends cleaning the thermal head to maintain receipt print quality. We recommend cleaning
periodically (about once every 3 months).
• After printing, the thermal head and its surroundings 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.

4
Clean the thermal head with a cotton swab moistened with alcohol solvent (ethanol
or isopropyl alcohol).

When the cleaned area is completely dry, load the roll paper and close the roll paper
cover.
