Maintaining Your Printer

Your printer requires little maintenance. However, Kodak recommends cleaning the scanner glass and lid regularly
to remove dust and fingerprints, which affect the quality and accuracy of scanning and copying.
Except while cleaning the printer, keep the printer plugged into an AC power outlet. If you use a power strip, don't
turn off the power strip. (The printer does not necessarily have to be turned on, but should be plugged in.)
Keep the printhead and ink cartridges in the printer at all times to help prevent damage to the printhead.
For recycling and/or disposal information, contact your local authority. In the US, go to the Electronics Industry
Alliance at www.eia.org or go to www.kodak.com/go/recycle.

General care and cleaning

:
Always disconnect the power to the printer before cleaning it. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners on any
part of the printer.
To clean the printer, wipe the outside with a clean, dry cloth.
Keep the surrounding area vacuumed and litter-free.
Protect the printer from tobacco smoke, dust and liquid spills.
Do not place objects on the printer.
Keep the paper tray free of dust, dirt and other foreign objects.
Keep the printer supplies away from direct sunlight and out of high-temperature environments.
Do not allow chemicals to come into contact with the printer.

Cleaning the scanner glass and document backing

The scanner glass can get smudged and minor debris can accumulate on the white document backing under the
scanner lid. Periodically clean the scanner glass and document backing.
:
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners on any part of the printer. Do not spray liquid directly onto the glass.
Do not use paper-based wipes on the document backing as they can scratch it.
1. Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power outlet.
2. Lift the scanner lid.
