7. Wipe off the media holding plates using a soft cloth that has been soaked in water.
Normally, wipe off any lint and dust that has attached to the surface, without removing
the media holding plates.
When self-adhesive media is used or ink has adhered to the surface of the media
holding plates, remove the plates, and wipe stains off both the front and rear surfaces.
When stains are removed, be sure to attach the plates to their original positions. See
“Replacing the Media Holding Plates” on page 174.
8. Open the left maintenance cover and clean inside.
Important:
When media with glue has been used, wipe away glue using a diluted neutral detergent. If
glue from the media adheres to the rear side of the plates, it may result in the print head
striking during printing.
