Your press is built to require a minimum amount of maintenance. Nevertheless, there are a few procedures you can perform on a regular basis or as needed to ensure the best possible performance.

A. SUPPLIES REQUIRED

For the procedures listed in this section, you will need the following items:

Isopropyl alcohol

Soft, lint-free cloth

Small vacuum cleaner (if available)

Or, to make these maintenance procedures more convenient, a Printer Cleaning Kit is available from PRIMERA or your authorized reseller. This optional kit includes the following:

Print head Cleaning Pens pre-moistened with 99.99% isopropyl alcohol for cleaning your printer's Print head.

Cleaning Pads pre-moistened with 99.99% isopropyl alcohol for cleaning your printer's rollers and general inside area.

B.CLEANING THE PRINT HEAD

This procedure is performed if you notice a streak running the length of the page where ink was not transferred. This procedure should also be performed approximately every 100 prints in order to maintain consistent print quality.

1.Turn the printer power OFF.

2.Open the printer's Top Cover by pressing the Cover Release Button.
