Cleaning Your Machine

This section describes the cleaning procedure that is needed to maintain your machine.

Caution

zBe sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord before cleaning the machine.

zDo not use tissue paper, paper towels, or similar materials for cleaning. Paper tissue powders or fine threads may remain inside the machine and cause problems such as a blocked Print Head and poor printing results. Use a soft cloth to avoid scratching the components.
