. CLEANING
To ensure a long and useful life for your machine, regular
cleaning is essential. For best results clean the scanning and
printing areas of your machine every time you use up a roll
of recording paper. The following points should be borne in
mind.
1) To avoid the risk of an electric shock, unplug the machine
before cleaning.
2) Do not use excessive water or organic solvents of any
kind (thinners, for example) to clean the machine.
3) Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe any dirt off the surface
of the machine.
To clean the working parts of the machine, carry out the steps
described in the following pages.
CLEANING THE PRINTING AREA
First, unplug the machine. Open the unit, and remove the roll
of recording paper from inside the machine.
When cleaning the printing head, use the cleaning slip pro­
vided with the machine. Wet one end of the paper slip with
isopropyl alcohol, and insert it under the guide until it will
enter no further. Then continue across the unit as shown in
the illustration, inserting the paper so the entire head is
cleaned with the alcohol, (Either side and both ends of the
paper slip can be used for cleaning the printing area.)
