Cleaning the Printer Exterior
Clean the printer regularly to maintain better printing quality and help prevent problems.
About once a month, clean the printer exterior.
1.
Turn the printer off. (See "Turning the Printer On and Off.") →P.694
2.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Caution
• Always turn off the printer and unplug the power cord before cleaning or maintenance. Accidentally
leaving the printer on poses a risk of injury if you touch moving parts inside the printer.
3.
Using a damp cloth that you have wrung out completely, wipe away any dirt or paper dust from the Paper Feed Slot
(a), power cord plug, and so on. Dry these parts with a dry cloth.
Caution
• Never use flammable solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinner. If these substances come into con-
tact with electrical components inside the printer, there is a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Important
• If the Ejection Guide is dirty, it may soil the edge of the paper when the paper is cut. We recommend
cleaning the Ejection Guide even if it does not appear dirty, because it may actually be covered with
paper dust.
(See "Cleaning Inside the Top Cover.")
