How to store a label printer during the low season

So, your season is done and dusted, and you are wondering what you should do with your label printer while you are having a break?

Here's what our supplier recommends:

• Leave it disconnected from the power - so it can't be damaged by power surges etc.
• Open the printhead - to release the pressure on the platen roller.
• The ribbon and labels can stay in the printer.
• It would be ideal to put some sort of moisture absorber / desiccant inside the printer and seal the printer an airtight bag, especially if you are in a humid environment (hopefully this will keep the tropical wildlife out too)
