Cleaning the Printer

Cleaning the pickup roller

The printer needs only minimal cleaning. If the printer's outer case is dirty or dusty, turn off the printer and clean it with a soft, clean cloth moistened with a mild detergent.

Caution:

Never use alcohol or paint thinner to clean the printer cover; these chemicals can damage the components and the case. Be careful not to get water onto the printer mechanism or any electrical components.

Place the cartridge on a clean, flat surface.
