Cleaning Your Machine
This section describes the necessary cleaning procedures for your machine.
Caution
• Be sure to turn OFF the power and disconnect the power cord before cleaning the machine.
• Do not use tissue paper, paper towels, or similar materials for cleaning. Paper tissue powders or
fine threads may remain inside the machine and cause problems such as a blocked Print Head
and poor printing results. Use a soft cloth to avoid scratching the components.
• Never use volatile liquids such as thinners, benzene, acetone, or any other chemical cleaner to
clean the machine; these can damage the machine's components.

transparent sheet (A), and the inner side of the ADF (white area) (B) with a clean, soft, lint-free
cloth moistened with water. Then wipe with a clean, soft, dry, lint-free cloth making sure not to
leave any residue, especially on the Platen Glass. If you have trouble getting the scanning area
clean, wipe with diluted mild detergent (for dish washing).
