Your P-touch should be cleaned on a regular basis to maintain its performance and life 
span.

Cleaning the Main Unit

Wipe any dust and marks from the main unit using a soft, dry cloth.
Use a slightly dampened cloth on difficult to remove marks.

Cleaning the Print Head

Streaks or poor quality characters on printed 
labels generally indicates that the print head is 
dirty. Clean the print head using a cotton swab or 
optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4).
