W HOW TO CLEAN THE PRINTER In order to maintain optimum performance of your printer, you’ll
want to clean it inside and out on a periodic basis. First be sure to
turn the power off and disconnect the printer from the power source.
Exterior
Use a soft cloth moistened in denatured alcohol to remove any
dust and dirt from the case of the printer. However, be careful not
to moisten either the printing mechanism or any electronic parts. --
Interior
We recommend an interior cleaning of the printer after approxi-
mately six months of moderate use, to remove any paper dust or -
small-particle buildup. 1
You may wish to use a can of pressurized air to blow off loose -
particles and dust. Or, you may use either a soft (e.g., camel’s hair)
brush or cloth. Again, be careful to avoid exposed electronic parts -
and wiring.
W REPLACING THE FUSE A fuse has been incorporated into the circuitry of your printer as
a safety device to protect it. This fuse may burn out as a result of
fluctuations in AC line voltage (that is, the electricity from your power
source).
Here are two easy ways to determine whether the fuse in your
printer is burned out:
.The power lamp does not light when you turn the power switch
on, or
*The printer has been in operation and the power lamp suddenly
goes out.
The spare fuse provided with your printer is easy to replace. Here’s
how to do it: -’
@Turn the power off and unplug the printer.

BE CAREFUL: The electronic circuitry of your printer uses
high-voltage power. Always disconnect the printer from the power
source before inspecting the fuse.

until it loosens. Gently pull it straight out toward you.
*Pull out the fuse and inspect it. You should see a thin metal strip
inside the glass tube.
