4.1.5

Replacing the pressure rollers

Poor quality printing may result if the pressure roller appears to be damaged or shows signs
of wear. In this case, the pressure roller must be replaced.
If large amounts of sleeve material are to be processed, it may lead to denting in the
pressure roller that will cause a poor quality printing on labels. The pressure roller often
recovers after a few hours.
We recommend using separate pressure rollers for sleeves and labels.
