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 horizontal streak may
appear through the text in the printed label.

Therefore, as with a tape recorder, the machine’s head may need to be cleaned from time to
time.
