Cleaning for ink smears: paper exit path

Approximate time to complete: 10 minutes

If you have already performed the “Cleaning for ink smears” cleaning procedure earlier in this chapter but problems persist, you should manually clean the paper exit path. Refer also to “Cleaning for ink smears: paper feed rollers” on page 4-29.

Occasionally stray ink particles become attached to the exit fingers, rollers and guides under the exit cover causing ink streaks or marks on the top edge, front or back of prints. When this occurs, you must clean these parts using both dry and alcohol-soaked swabs. Refer to “Using isopropyl alcohol” on page 4-20 for more information.
