About this thermal printhead
A thermal printhead is the strip of small heating elements inside a label, receipt or barcode printer that builds the printed image. It works either by darkening heat-sensitive paper or by transferring ink from a ribbon onto plain paper. Heads vary by printer model and by print resolution, so the replacement must match both. The element surface wears down through normal use and is harmed by dirt, adhesive build-up and scratches. Warning signs include white lines along the print, faint or patchy output, barcodes that fail to scan, or a head error reported by the printer.
Is this the right part?
Find the part number on the label fixed to the head or its bracket. Check the printer model and the print resolution, since heads for the same model come in different resolutions. Try cleaning the old head before deciding to replace it, and keep fingers off the heating line. The manufacturer's part number for this listing is 79801M.
Not sure? Send us the number from the label, or your machine's serial number, and we will confirm the match before you order.
