Expanded Printhead Cleaning

Perform if you have a streak on the printed output that can’t be solved by the Standard Printhead Cleaning procedure. To maintain the Printer’s high quality of printing, this procedure should also be performed approximately every 2,500 prints as part of the Printer’s general maintenance program.

Step

Procedure

 

 

1

Open the Top Cover of the Printer by gently grasping the front sides of the

 

Cover and lifting upward. (Note: The Cover will tilt open from front-to-back._

 

 

2

Open the Printhead Assembly by gently pulling up on the assembly’s Release

 

Tab and lifting upward. Allow the assembly to swing completely open.

 

 

3

Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly moistened with acetone to wipe off the surface

 

of the Printhead. Be extremely careful not to use too much acetone. It must not

 

be allowed to drip into the Printer!

 

Caution: Acetone is a very powerful solvent. Do not apply acetone

 

to any other area of the Printer, since it will destroy the finish of the paint,

 

rubber and plastic.

 

 

4

Allow the Printhead to thoroughly dry before closing the Printhead Assembly

 

and Top Cover. If a streak persists, contact the authorized reseller for further

 

assistance.
