With use, a film and/or dust builds up on the eye of the sensor
causing misfeeds of media. Periodically use compressed air to
blow dust from the sensors. For caked on dust use a Q-tip to
remove the dust from the eye of the sensor. Note: The lower
half of the Sensor
is seen through
the hole in the
floor.
The Guides beneath the banks of Print Head Assemblies will
over time pick up ink,
wax, clay and other
material from the media it
touches. Once enough wax
or clay, etc, accumulates
on the Guides it will leave
marks or smears on the
media. Use water to
dampen a soft cloth to
remove any ink, wax, clay,
etc. and keep the Guides
clean.
