Cleaning the printer
To keep your printer operating at its best, you should clean it
thoroughly several times a year.
1.
Make sure the printer is turned off. Remove any paper as well as
the paper cassette and output guide.
2.
Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt.
3.
If the outer case or paper cassette is dirty or dusty, clean it with
a soft, clean cloth dampened with mild detergent. Keep the
printer cover in place to prevent water from getting inside the
printer.
CAUTION:
l
Never use alcohol or thinners to clean the printer;
these chemicals can damage the components as well
as the case.
l
Do not use a hard or abrasive brush.
l
Do not spray the inside of the printer with lubricants;
unsuitable oils can damage the mechanism. Contact
your dealer or a qualified service person if you think
lubrication is needed.
l
Be careful not to get water on the printer mechanism
or electronic components.
Replacing the ribbon cartridge
When the printing becomes faint, you need to replace the ribbon
cartridge. Epson recommends the SO15032 ribbon cartridge.
CAUTION:
If you have just used the printer, let the print
head cool for a few minutes before you touch it.
