Cleaning the Print Head

CAUTION:

After printing, the print head can be very hot. Be careful not to touch it.
Also let it cool before you clean it. Do not damage the print head by
touching it with your fingers or any hard object.

maintain receipt print quality.

with the right side of the check against the right side of the
paper guide as far as it will go. Be sure that the MICR
characters are on the right.

not pull it at an angle.
