Maintenance, Storage and Transport

This section explains how maintain, store and transport the printer.

Maintenance

Internal Care

If fine stripes appear on printed images, there is a possibility that dirt or dust has become lodged inside the printer. Use the supplied cleaner to remove the dirt or dust.

1 Remove the ink cassette.

2 Insert the cleaner with the arrow side upward all the way into the slot, then remove it, repeating this two or three times.

Exterior Care

Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth.

Never apply solvents, such as benzine or thinners, or detergent to the printer. These substances may damage the exterior or peel the finish.

Care of the Back

Clean the dust from the air vents on the back. Dust will get on the ink sheet if it enters from the air vents, preventing the printer from printing cleanly. If dust becomes lodged on the ink sheet, use a blower brush to remove it so that you do not touch the ink sheet.
