5-4 Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Main Carriage Shaft
The carriage slides on two shafts. The
main shaft, located directly under the
printhead, requires occasional lubrication.
The other shaft near the front of the printer
does not require lubrication. You must use
3-In-One ® machine oil or an equivalent oil.
To clean the main carriage shaft, use these
steps:
1. With the printer off, remove the top
cover. Leave the platen window in the
raised position.
2. Slide the carriage to one side and, using
a clean, lint-free cloth, wipe the main
shaft
away from the carriage. Slide the
carriage to the other side and wipe the
main shaft again
away from the car-
riage.
3. While holding the cloth below the shaft,
apply two or three drops of oil, as shown
in figure 5-4. Then, slowly slide the
carriage along the shaft and stop at the
far side of the chassis.
4. Repeat step 4, only this time slide the
carriage back and forth several times
to work the oil into the carriage's self-
lubricating felt rings.
5. To remove any excess oil, slide the
carriage to one side and wipe the main
shaft. Slide the carriage to the other
side and wipe the main shaft again.
6. Replace the top cover.
, Caution: If you accidently lubricate the
front support shaft, do not use cleaners to
remove the oil. Instead, use a lint-free rag
to carefully wipe the shaft until it is clean.
