Maintenance
137
Do not allow ink cleaner to drip from the cleaning stick.
When dampening a clean-room wipe with ink cleaner, use cleaner poured into the cup.
Regular Cleaning
To preserve print quality and ensure good results, clean the print head, wiper, caps, and
wiper rail as described in this section.
Cleaning Around the Print Head (Daily)
If you notice any ink clots, lint, or dust when checking the area around the print head, clean
the area by following the steps below. The S70675 and S50675 printers have 2 print
heads; make sure you clean both.
Before you start, be sure to read “Maintenance Precautions” on page 134.
1. Position the print head for maintenance. See “Moving the Print Head” on page 135.
Important:
❏
Do not reuse ink cleaner. Using dirty ink cleaner will make staining worse.
❏
Used ink cleaner, cleaning sticks, and clean room wipes are industrial waste and should be
disposed of in the same way as used ink. See “Disposal of Used Consumables” on page 179.
❏
Store ink cleaner at room temperature out of direct sunlight.
❏
After using the ink cleaner, be sure to first close the inner cap and then the outer cap. Failure
to securely close these caps may cause a leakage or volatilization of the ink cleaner.
