B. CLEANING THE OUTSIDE AND INSIDE OF THE PRINTER

Occasionally, you may wish to clean dust or other accumulated particles from the inside or outside of your printer. Always disconnect your printer’s power before cleaning. To clean your printer, use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol to wipe off dusty areas of your printer. If cleaning the inside of the printer, you must first remove the ribbon. Then, gently wipe out all visible areas of the printerÕs interior. Do not allow alcohol to drip inside the printer. Once the printer is completely dry, re-install the ribbon and close the cover.

3.Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol to wipe dust or any other particles off the surface of the roller. Use the on off and clear buttons to rotate the roller back and forth while you are wiping the surface clean. Do not allow alcohol to drip into printer!

4.Once the roller is completely dry, re-install the ribbon and close the cover.
