Cleaning the Exterior Panels
The painted exterior plastic panels of the printer has a durable finish, offering
excellent chemical resistance to common cleaning materials. Follow the
recommendations below when cleaning these areas of the printer.
Acceptable Cleaning Agents
• mild soap solution
• common household cleaners and window cleaners
• common commercial and industrial detergents, 5% solution in water
• alcohol (ethanol, isopropanol), 10% to 40% solution in water
Wipe the exterior of the printer, using a soft cloth moistened with the cleaning
solution.
Unacceptable Materials
• industrial solvents
• cleaning agents containing hydrocarbons, ketones, esters and lacquer
thinners
• spray disinfectants
• abrasives and agents which could wear away the panel finish
Cleaning the UV Screen
The transparent section of the cover is made of strong, acrylic material that
screens out harmful UV radiation. Use extreme care when cleaning it to prevent
the appearance of scratch marks.
Caution
Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning fluids containing ammonia, alcohol,
acetone, benzine, carbon or tetrachloride. These materials can cause
permanent damage to the surface.
To clean the UV screen:
1. Blow off surface dust.
Do
not
wipe the surface to remove dust; this might scratch the surface.
2. Prepare a 1-percent solution of mild dish-washing soap in water—about two
teaspoons (10 ml) in a liter of water.
Note:
While soapy water is effective for cleaning, commercial products are also
available for cleaning acrylic surfaces (for example, Novus
®
and Brillianize
®
).
These products give the surface antistatic, smudge and scratch-resistant properties.
3. Soak a micro-fiber cloth in the solution.
Do not use paper towels, which can cause scratch marks.
4. Thoroughly wet the surface with the cloth. Do not wipe!
5. Rinse the cloth with clean water.
6. Absorb the solution from the acrylic surface with the cloth, without applying
pressure.
