Print Head & Rollers - Brother P-touch 1300 Manual Del Usaurio

Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine's print head and
rollers. This is particularly likely when you are using the unit outdoors or in a very
dusty environment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a blank horizon-
tal streak may appear through the label text. Therefore, as with a tape recorder, the
machine's head may need to be cleaned from time to time.
To clean the print head and rollers:
1 Turn off the machine.
2 Remove the back cover, and then remove the tape cassette if one is installed. The
print head and rollers are located in the tape compartment.
3 Print head: Use a dry cotton swab to gently wipe the print head with an up-and-
down motion.
Rollers: Use a dry cotton swab to wipe each roller with an up-and-down motion
while rotating them with your finger.
4 Install a tape cassette, attach the back cover, and then try printing again.
5 If dust still remains, repeat steps 2 through 4 using a cotton swab dipped in iso-
propyl (rubbing) alcohol.
If none of the above works, contact your service representative.
The print head can be cleaned more easily with the optional print head clean-
ing cassette TZ-CL4 (3/4" (18 mm)).
