GE Corometrics 170 printer head Fetal Monitor printheard module KF2008-GH40H OK120-35323

The GE Corometrics 170/171/172 Fetal Monitor printing head is an essential component of these monitoring systems. It plays a crucial role in producing hard copies of fetal monitoring data for healthcare professionals to review and analyze.

This printing head is designed to work seamlessly with the Corometrics 170/171/172 Fetal Monitors, which are widely used in obstetric settings to monitor fetal heart rate and uterine activity during pregnancy and labor.

The printing head is responsible for translating the digital data collected by the monitoring system into physical printouts that can be added to patient records, shared with other healthcare providers, or used for further analysis.

Common problems that may arise with the printing head of the GE Corometrics 170/171/172 Fetal Monitor could include the following issues:

Print Quality Issues: Print head clogging or damage can result in poor print quality, such as faded printouts, streaks, or incomplete printing. This can make it difficult to interpret the fetal monitoring data accurately.

Paper Jams: Paper jams are a common issue with printing devices, including the printing head of fetal monitors. Jams can occur due to misaligned paper, worn rollers, or debris in the paper path.

Misalignment: If the printing head is not properly aligned with the paper or if there are calibration issues, the printouts may be skewed or misaligned, affecting the readability of the data.

Mechanical Wear and Tear: Over time, the printing head may experience wear and tear, leading to issues such as uneven printing, smudges, or erratic behavior.

Connection Problems: Issues with the connection between the printing head and the monitoring system can result in communication errors or the printing head not being recognized by the device.

Compatibility Problems: Incompatibility between the printing head and the monitoring system can lead to functionality issues, preventing the printing head from working correctly.

Software or Firmware Issues: Problems with the monitoring system's software or firmware can sometimes impact the performance of the printing head, causing errors or malfunctions.
