Before you clean the printer, turn OFF the printer and computer, and
disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Otherwise, it may
cause an electrical shock.

Never clean the printer with any kind of organic solvent, such as alcohol,
benzene, or paint thinner. This may cause a fire and electrical shock, or
cause the exterior of the printer to disfigure or discolor.

Do not touch the blade fixed at the upper part of the paper output section
or side surfaces of the metal parts. You may cut your fingers or get
injured.
