Clean Carriage Bushings - Oce CS 5090 User Manual

If the electrical contact areas on both the flex cables and the cartridges are not
kept clean, image quality can deteriorate. This is due to the firing signals from
the carriage assembly being blocked from getting to the cartridges resulting in
jets not firing when they should. This condition can be seen as a misfiring of
the cartridge.
Always clean each of these areas weekly or whenever you change cartridges
so that excessive buildup does not develop.
