There are some special cautions to be followed for
using the printer. Observe the following to
maintain the printer and your safety.
❏ Avoid places subject to a direct wind from a
fan or air conditioner. A wind may dry the ink
in the head nozzles causing clogging that
affects ink jetting, and you will not be able to
obtain satisfactory printing results.
❏ Do not touch the paper guide during printing.
It is hot and may cause a burn.
❏ Do not touch the paper feed slot, platen or
paper guide while heaters are operating. They
are hot and may cause a burn.

❏ When not using the printer for a long period
(one week or more), perform head cleaning
once a week. If head cleaning is not
performed, the print head may get clogged.
Doing so will preserve print quality.
See "Head cleaning" on page 66
❏ Clean the cleaning wiper once a month, or
when blurs or gaps appear on printed paper
after head cleaning.
See "Cleaning the cleaning wiper" on page

❏ Clean around the print head when foreign
objects, such as dust or ink causing omitted
dots or ink drops are attached around the
print head.
See "Cleaning around the print head" on
