Preventative Maintenance

Prevention is always far better than cure. To maximise the performance and longevity of your thermal printheads, we recommend a regular cleaning schedule using 99% pure isopropy alcohol wipes. Using a product with less than 99% isopropyl alcohol contains too much water and can cause damage to the printer.

We recommend the following cleaning schedule:

For thermal transfer printing, clean the printhead and platen roller with each ribbon change.
For direct thermal printing, clean the printhead and platen roller with each new roll of labels.

Contact us for more information on our IPA Wipes, available in packs of 25, 50 and 100. Material safety data sheet is available if required.
