Cleaning

ribbon cartridge. Using a soft vacuum brush, gently vacuum the platen, the printhead
carriage and shaft, and surrounding areas. You can easily slide the printhead to the left
or right when the power is off. Be careful not to press too hard on the flat ribbon
cable that extends from the printhead carriage.
