mild detergent solution. Avoid using any other type of solvents, such as
alcohol or benzine, which might damage the surface. When finished
cleaning, wipe the cabinet with a dry cloth.
Before cleaning the printer, always unplug it from the AC outlet.
Do not spill water or detergent into the printer. Otherwise the printer will
be damaged and electric shock may even occur.
Do not lubricate the printer. This printer does not require lubrication.
EP-22 Cartridge
The EP-22 cartridge contains a photosensitive part called a “drum” which
has characteristics similar to photo film. It also contains black carbon
powder called “toner.” The drum is extremely sensitive to light and might
deteriorate if exposed to light. Also, poor print quality can result if toner
becomes caked or unevenly distributed inside the cartridge.
Please adhere to the following guidelines when storing or handling the
cartridge.
