Maintenance of Ink Cartridges
The ink ingredients have a tendency to separate and settle. Allowing the ink to stand can cause the settled
material to harden, resulting in malfunction or other problems.
So that the ink mixes well, periodically shake each ink cartridge 50 times (about 20 seconds) horizontally
with a stroke length of around 5 cm (1.97 in.) from each end of the ink cartridge before reinserting it.
Cleaning
WARNING
Never use gasoline, alcohol, thinner, or any other flammable material.
Doing so may cause a fire.
Wipe away any ink or grime on the media path and other areas as part of the daily cleaning procedure.
Pinch rollers, grit rollers, and the platen are particularly prone to the buildup of grime. Wipe away any
buildup of ink or grime on the media path. Clean by wiping with a cloth moistened by neutral detergent
diluted with water then wrung dry.
