Replace the service station wipers (quarterly)

The wiper blades deteriorate with use. Replacing the wiper blades periodically restores the wiping to
optimal performance and wiper height.

NOTE:

Replace the wipers according to the schedule in

Table 5-1 Schedule of cleaning tasks

on page 66

. The wiper replacement schedule is calculated to be frequent enough to avoid the need for

wiper-height calibrations between replacements. If the wipers are not making adequate contact with the
printheads, contact your service provider to calibrate the wiper height.

1.

Remove the screw (A in the photo below) that secures the wiper clamp to the wiper assembly.

2.

Separate the two wiper clamp halves and remove the original wiper blade.

3.

Install the replacement wiper blade in the orientation shown below.

4.

Secure the wiper blade clamp to the wiper assembly using the original screw.
