Thermal Printing

ZD200 Series printers use heat to expose direct thermal media or heat and pressure to melt and transfer ‘ink’ to the media. Extra care should be taken to avoid touching the printhead which gets hot and is sensitive to electrostatic discharges.
The printhead may be hot and could cause severe burns. Allow the printhead to cool.
To protect from damaging the printhead and risk of personal injury, AVOID touching the printhead. Use ONLY the cleaning pen to perform printhead maintenance.
The discharge of electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the printhead and other electronic components used in this device. You must observe static-safe procedures when working with the printhead or the electronic components under the top cover.
