Wool, as well as many synthetic carpeting materials, are notorious for
causing static electricity. If the site has carpeting, consider using an
anti-static spray on the area surrounding the printer or place an anti-
static mat under the printer stand. If you use an anti-static spray, do
not spray the printer or the paper.
CLEANING
Warning !
Remember to turn off power and unplug the printer
before cleaning interior or exterior surfaces.
INTERIOR SURFACES
Paper dust is inevitable. If desired, use a vacuum cleaner to remove
paper dust from the area beneath the ribbon cartridge and printhead
carriage. Prefer using a vacuum cleaner specially designed for electronic
equipment. Avoid canned or compressed air, which can force dust and
dirt into printer mechanisms.
Before you vacuum, remove the ribbon cartridge (Page 99). While you
vacuum, move the printhead carriage from side to side to vacuum debris
from under the carriage path. Do not force vacuum attachments into
hard-to-reach places; and limit vacuuming to the area directly beneath the
cartridge and carriage. Absolute cleanliness is not necessary.
Never use a liquid cleaner—including soap and water—inside the printer.
