Cleaning the Platen Roller/Paper Sensor

When paper dust accumulates on the platen rollers or the paper sensor, follow the steps below to clean them. To
maintain good functional capabilities, clean them regularly (every 6 months).
Do not use an alcohol-based solvent. Use of an alcohol-based solvent might cause the
adhesive agent to partially dissolve making its removal even more difficult.
CAUTION
