Interior Cleaning
131
To clean the interior of the printer, refer to Figure 10 and perform the following
steps:
1.
Power off the printer and unplug the printer power cord.
2.
Open the printer cover.
3.
Fully raise the platen lever.
4.
Unload the paper.
5.
Unlatch the ribbon and ribbon spool and carefully lift them off the hubs.
NOTE:
If there are ink stained fingerprints on the ribbon barcode (located on
the ribbon spool), wipe it clean with a soft cloth or towelette
moistened with alcohol.
6.
Lift the ribbon out of the ribbon path.
7.
Brush the paper dust and ribbon lint off the tractors, shuttle cover
assembly, and base casting with a soft-bristled, non-metallic brush (such
as a toothbrush). Vacuum up the residue.
CAUTION
Vacuum carefully around the hammer bank and surrounding area to
avoid damage. To avoid corrosion damage, use only alcohol when
cleaning the printer mechanical elements. Solutions used to clean
mechanical elements must contain no water.
8.
Wipe the splined shaft with a soft cloth.
9.
Check the ribbon mask and hammer bank cover for bits of torn paper or
ribbon lint.
10. Remove dust and ink from the platen using a soft cloth lightly moistened
with anhydrous alcohol

. (The platen is the thick silver bar behind the
hammer bank cover that rotates when the platen is rotated).
CAUTION
When cleaning the platen, be very careful not to get any alcohol in the
hammer bank, because alcohol will cause severe damage to the
hammer bank. Only a trained service technician should clean the shuttle
assembly.
11. For cabinet models:
a.
Brush and vacuum the accumulated dust or residue inside the lower
cabinet.
b.
Wipe the lower cabinet interior with a clean, lint-free cloth dampened
(not wet) with water and mild detergent or window cleaning solution.
Dry the lower cabinet interior by wiping it down with a clean, lint-free
cloth.
12. Install the ribbon, load paper, and set the top–of–form. Refer to the
InfoPrint 6500 Line Matrix Printers: Quick Start Guide.

Due to water content in most isopropyl alcohol products, 99.9% alcohol is required.
A lower percentage of alcohol will cause internal components to rust.
