6 Wait 5 to 10 seconds for the print surface to dry. Replace the media and
ribbon.
7 Engage the printhead by rotating the head lift lever counterclockwise
until it locks in place.
8 If you are finished cleaning, replace the media cover.
Clean the printer covers with a general purpose cleaner (soapy water or
mild detergent). Do not use abrasive cleansers or solvents. Be sure to clean
the transparent panel on the media cover so that the media supply inside
the printer is visible when you close the cover.
Cleaning the rollers and the tear bar preserves print quality by ensuring
close contact between the media and the printhead.
