Dirt on any of the following parts may reduce print quality. Regularly clean or replace these
parts as described in the chapters listed in the reference sections below.
1 Print head
The print head prints by moving left and right while emitting ink. Cleaning may be required.
See “Cleaning Around the Print Head” on page 91.
2 Media holding plate
The media holding plates prevent the media from riding up and keep fuzz on the cut edge of the media from touching the
print head. Position the plates at either side of the media before printing.
See
“Loading Media” on page 31.
3 Cutter groove
Pass the blade of a cutter (not included) down this groove to cut media.
4 Pressure rollers
These rollers press down on the media during printing.
See “Cleaning the Platen, Pressure Rollers, and Media Holding Plates” on page 82.
5 Platen
The platen suctions the media for printing.
See “Cleaning the Platen, Pressure Rollers, and Media Holding Plates” on page 82.
6 Wiper cleaner
