Cleaning for ink smears: paper-exit path

Approximate time to complete: 10 minutes

If you have already performed the ÒCleaning for ink smearsÓ cleaning

procedure but problems persist, you should clean the paper-exit path. Refer

also to ÒCleaning for jams and ink smears: media-feed rollersÓ on page 5-28.

If you have already performed the ink smear cleaning procedures for the

internal paper path and the paper feed rollers but problems persist, you

should manually clean the paper exit path.

Occasionally stray ink particles become attached to the exit Þngers, rollers

and guides under the exit cover, causing ink streaks or marks on the top

edge, front or back of prints. When this occurs, you must clean these parts

using both dry and alcohol-soaked swabs or cloths. Refer to ÒUsing

isopropyl alcoholÓ on page 5-15 for more information.
