Cleaning the Printer
To keep your printer operating at its best, you should clean it thoroughly several times a year.
Follow these steps to clean the printer:
|
Remove any paper loaded in the printer, and turn off the printer. Make sure that all of its covers are closed.
|
|
Remove the ribbon cartridge. If an optional pull tractor or perforation cutter is installed, remove it.
|
|
Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt from the outer.
|
|
If the outer case is still dirty or dusty, clean it with a soft, clean cloth dampened with mild detergent dissolved in water. Keep the printer cover and front cover closed to prevent water from getting inside the printer.
|
|
Caution:
|
| -
Never use alcohol or thinners to clean the printer; these chemicals can damage the printer components as well as the case.
|
|
| -
Be careful not to get water on the printer mechanism or electronic components.
|
|
| -
Do not use a hard or abrasive brush.
|
|
Do not spray the inside of the printer with lubricants; unsuitable oils can damage the printer mechanism. Contact your Epson dealer if you think lubrication is needed.
