This chapter describes the daily maintenance of the DP-1VR.
1. Cleaning the Printer Head
Dirt adhering to the printer head may result in poor printing quality and
damage the printer head, making printing altogether impossible. It is
therefore recommended to clean the printer head on a regular basis.
Cleaning method:
Open the printer cover and gently wipe the printer head with a cotton
swab moistened with a little alcohol. Then wipe off any alcohol
remaining on the printer head with a dry cotton swab.
2. Cleaning the Paper Sensor
A dirty paper sensor may render printer paper detection impossible and
prevent normal operation. It is thus recommended to clean the paper
sensor on a regular basis.
Cleaning method:
Open the printer cover and gently wipe the paper sensor with a cotton
swab moistened with a little alcohol. Then wipe off any alcohol
remaining on the printer head with a dry cotton swab to make sure it is
fully dry.
CAUTION
Never perform cleaning immediately after printing, because
the printer head will still be very hot and may cause burns.
This also presents the risk of the alcohol igniting.
Thoroughly wipe off any alcohol that remains on the
printer head. Powering on the DP-1VR while the printer
head is not completely dry may cause a fire.
Handle the alcohol used for cleaning with care.
Never use thinner, benzene, or some other substance
instead of alcohol.
