Static Electricity Damage Prevention - Canon BJC-3000 Service Manual

Part 2: Maintenance BJC-3000
The BJ cartridge ejects ink onto the paper. Prolonged or heavy-duty use of the printer
may cause ink mist (floating small amounts of ink mist splattering off paper) during
printing, which will contaminate areas around the purge unit, the platen, and the
front cover.
As ink mist can contaminate printing paper, and during servicing, hands and
clothing, clean any contaminated parts with soft, moist cloth.
