Maintaining the Printer
To ensure good printer performance and high-quality prints, make
sure the KODAK D4000 Duplex Photo Printer and its
environment are clean and dust free.
Performing Routine Maintenance
To maintain good print quality, clean the exterior of the printer and
the filter openings regularly (see
page 3-3 ) to eliminate dust
buildup and prevent debris from entering the printer.
In addition, each time you change the ribbon, clean the following
parts on both the left side and the right side of the printer:
• thermal print heads and related rollers (see page 3-5 ).
• platen rollers (see page 3-7 ).
• pinch rollers (see page 3-8 ).
• cleaning rollers (see page 3-9 ).
Make sure you have the KODAK Thermal Printer Cleaning Kit
available. This kit contains 10 individually packaged alcohol pads.
CAUTION:
Alcohol is a flammable liquid. It can cause eye irritation and
dry skin. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause
drying, cracking, or irritation. Wash your hands with soap
and water following any maintenance procedures where you
use alcohol pads. For additional information, see the
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
Never use abrasives or harsh chemicals to clean any part of
the printer. Do not allow any foreign objects or liquids to fall
or spill inside the printer. Fire or electric shock could result.
If any foreign object enters the printer, turn off the printer
power immediately, remove the power cord, and contact
KODAK Service and Support.
