3. Daily Care
3.1 Cleaning the Print Cartridge
Poor quality prints can occur due to blocked ink emission 
holes in the nozzle. Leaving the imprinter unused for long 
periods can also cause emission holes to become blocked. 
When the emission holes are blocked, clean the nozzle 
surface of the print cartridge. 
 
ATTENTION
For cleaning, use a dry lint-free cloth (DO NOT use 
tissue), and gently wipe any dirt and stains off the 
nozzle’s surface. 
 
1. 
Turn off the Scanner.
2.
Remove the Print Cartridge.
(Refer to "2.6 Replacing the Print Cartridge")
ATTENTION
When cleaning, be careful not to touch the 
nozzle plate or the contact parts of the 
cartridge directly by hand. 
 
3. 
Gently wipe any dirt and stains off the nozzle 
surface. 
 
4. 
Make sure that all dirt and stains are removed, 
before installing the Print Cartridge. 
(Refer to “2.6 Replacing the Print Cartridge”)
ATTENTION
When installing or replacing the print 
cartridge, be careful not to insert it out of 
place. 
 
 
3.2 Cleaning the Imprinter
As the fi-590PRF prints the number on a document before 
reading operation, ink can spatter over the glass and paper 
path of the Upper transport unit, and vicinity of the print 
cartridge holder. 
We recommend you to clean the scanner after 5000 sheets 
scanning to avoid smudge on the scanned image. Note that 
the required cleaning cycle may vary depending upon 
document type to be scanned. 
More frequent cleaning may be required when printing a 
document on which ink does not easily get dry. 
CAUTION
When you do the cleaning, turn off the 
scanner power, and unplug the power cable 
from the outlet. 
If cleaning is done with power turned on, it 
may cause electric shock or imprinter failure.
ATTENTION
For cleaning, use a dry lint-free cloth (DO NOT 
use tissue). 
 
1. 
Turn off the Scanner.
2.
Remove the print cartridge.
(Refer to “2.6 Replacing the Print Cartridge”)
3.
