Taking Care Of Your Printer

Your printer will produce high quality print jobs if it is well taken care of.

Periodic cleaning, handling the printer properly, and using the correct printer

supplies, such as paper and ribbons, will ensure optimum performance.

Chapter 15 explains how to clean the printer, and printer supplies are listed in

Appendix A.

Whenever it is necessary to service the printer, remember these important

maintenance concepts:

• Use only the ribbons specified in Appendix A. Use of incorrect ribbons

can cause ink migration problems, degraded print quality, and expensive

damage to the printer.

• Incorrect closure of the forms thickness lever can cause smearing,

degraded print quality, paper jams, and damage to the platen and shuttle

assembly. Never close the forms thickness lever too tightly.

• Excessive printing outside of the boundaries of the paper will degrade

print quality and cause hammer bank damage. Never print outside of the

paper width.
