internal rollers. This could cause prints
to get dirty.
❏

inside the printer, otherwise, the printer
may be damaged.
D
Clean all the parts.
Platen section
Use a soft cloth to wipe dust and dirt from the
parts in “a” (light blue) in the following
illustration. To avoid spreading the dirt, wipe
from the inside to the outside. If the printer is
particularly dirty, dampen the cloth with water
containing a small amount of neutral detergent,
and then firmly wring the cloth dry before
using it to wipe the printer's surface. Then,
wipe the inside of the printer with a dry, soft
cloth.
If any paper particles (that look like white
powder) accumulate, use something with a thin
tip, such as a toothpick, to push them in.
Ink absorbing areas
If any dust or paper particles accumulate on
part “b” in the illustration, or around that area,
use a cleaning stick (provided or consumable)
as shown below to wipe it off.
c
Important:
❏
Do not rub the ink absorbing areas hard.
Doing so causes the absorbing pad to
come off.
❏
Do not use cotton swabs that are
commercially available. Fibers from the
cotton swabs may be left in ink
absorbing area and may cause the prints
to get dirty.
