Cleaning The Inside Of The Printer - Brother GT-3 SERIES Basic Operation Manual

5-2-2. Cleaning the inside of the printer

(1) When replacing the consumables or cleaning the printer, be sure to check for dirt inside of the printer. Wipe
off the front/back of the Clearance Sensor and around the Platen with a soft wet cloth with water. Use Wash
Liquid to remove the clogged ink.
<Note>
The dirt of the Clearance Sensor may stain the T-shirt in loading.
(2) Wipe off the dust on the T-shirt Tray with wet cloth.
(3) Wipe off the ink mist on the surface e.g. where the Carriage Rollers move on, with a clean and soft cloth
soaked with alcohol.
(4) Wipe off the ink mist on the Carriage Guide Shaft with a clean and soft cloth soaked with alcohol. Put some
specified grease (option) on a soft cloth and apply the Carriage Guide Shaft. After cleaning, adjust the
Carriage Speed from the menu. See "7-2-9. Adjusting the CR Speed" in the Instruction Manual.
(5) Push the Stop Lever to release the lock when you close the Front Cover with both hands and then turn ON
the printer. If something irregular occurs, e.g. abnormal noise or error "No Wiper Cleaner (CMYK/White)", turn
off your printer, and check if the Wiper Cleaner is correctly mounted, etc.
(6) When the printer is turned on, perform normal cleaning and check the ink quality using the nozzle check
pattern printing.
