Cleaning kit
A cleaning kit comes with the printer. The cleaning kit contains these items:
■ Lint-free cleaning wipes
■ A plastic bottle for isopropyl alcohol
■ A cleaning tray for cleaning paper-pick rollers
■ Cleaning instructions (you may use those instructions, or follow
the instructions in the next few pages)
For the cleaning kit that is shipped with the printer, you must supply
isopropyl alcohol (available at pharmacies); shipping regulations prohibit
supplying alcohol or presoaked cleaning materials with the printer.
In general, you should use the purest isopropyl alcohol available to you.
99% pure is best, and 90% also works well.
Caution
Do not use rubbing alcohol because it can contain oils that
leave undesirable residue on the printer parts.
Note
To order a new cleaning kit, call your dealer or Tektronix (order
number 016-1233-00). You can also order a cleaning kit
containing presoaked alcohol cleaning wipes (order number
016-1276-00).
