6.1 Cleaning

This chapter provides information on how to maintain this printer. This printer is basically designed to
require no cleaning. It is, however, preferable to perform cleaning to preserve its function and printing
performance in the optimum condition for a long period of time. Therefore be sure to perform occasional
cleaning described in the following sections.

Be sure to unplug the power cable from the AC power inlet before cleaning the printer.

Be careful not to get ink in your eyes. In case ink gets in your eyes, wash it away with fresh water
and see a doctor.

Follow the instructions below when handling the lithium battery installed on the C211 MAIN board.

 1. 

Keep the battery away from any metal materials.

 2. 

Ensure to mount the battery in the right direction. Otherwise it may result in explosion.

 3. 

Do not heat up or burn the battery

Never apply thinner, trichloroethilene, and toner-based solvents. Use of a soft and dry cloth is
recommended. In case stain adheres, use a cloth dumped with mild detergent.

Do not use a hard brush for cleaning so as cases won’t be scratched.

Be careful not to damage any interior parts when cleaning inside the printer.

When transporting the printer, be sure to remove the ink cartridges and lock the CR unit.

ASP printer mechanism is not lubricated. Therefore be sure to apply lubricants to paper eject
frame when replacing it.
