To clean the printer surfaces, use the
following procedure:

1. Turn off the printer and detach the

power cord.

2. Using a soft brush or lint-free cloth, dust

all of the exterior surfaces, as shown in
figure 5-6. Be sure the cloth is free of
grit or other matter.

3. Using a cloth lightly moistened with glass

cleaner, 91% isopropyl alcohol, or a mild
dishwashing detergent, wipe and clean
the platen window.

4. Raise the top cover. Using a soft brush

or vacuum, remove all paper fibers, dust
and foreign matter from inside the
printer. Then, lower the top cover.

5. Using a soft brush or vacuum, remove

all paper fibers, dust, and foreign matter
from the rear forms tractors, as shown
