Cleaning the Printer
2 Open the front cover and wipe inside the printer with a clean dry cloth.
Look for sprayed ink, paper dust, or scraps of paper especially around the
platen. Avoid touching parts inside the printer such as the cartridge holder.
• To avoid serious personal injury, never use flammable solvents such as
thinners, benzene or alcohol to clean the printer. If such substances
come in contact with electrical components inside the printer, they could
cause a fire or electric shock.
• Always unplug the printer from the power outlet when you are cleaning it.
You could touch moving parts inside the printer and suffer injury if you
clean the printer while it is still on.
