CLEANING

7.1 Introduction

The LA 310 has been designed as a low maintenance printer. Most of the maintenance
needed is determined by the environment in which it operates.
High ambient temperatures cause the oil on the paper moving mechanism and carriage
to dry out. Dust, dirt atmosphere, and residue from the ribbons and paper coat the
internal surfaces (especially the oily ones), and will eventually clog the mechanism.
Use a few minutes of a site visit to examine and clean the printer.
7.2 Cleaning
Customer cleaning responsabilities are defined in chapter 7 of the LA 310 MultiPrinter
Installation and User Guide.
Wipe off any dirt with a soft cloth. Remove obstacles such as small pieces of paper using
tweezers.
CAUTION
Be very careful not to damage the mechanism when clearing obstacles.

7.3 Cleaning Platen

Open the access cover and clean the platen surface with DEC platen cleaner.
