Cleaning the Printer
To keep your printer operating at its best, you should clean it
thoroughly several times a year.
Follow these steps to clean the printer:
1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer, and turn off the
printer. Make sure that all of its covers are closed.
2. Remove the ribbon cartridge. If an optional pull tractor or
perforation cutter is installed, remove it.
3. Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt from
the outer.
4. If the outer case is still dirty or dusty, clean it with a soft, clean
cloth dampened with mild detergent dissolved in water. Keep
the printer cover and front cover closed to prevent water from
getting inside the printer.
c
Caution:
❏ Never use alcohol or thinners to clean the printer; these
chemicals can damage the printer components as well as the
case.
❏ Be careful not to get water on the printer mechanism or
electronic components.
❏ Do not use a hard or abrasive brush.
Do not spray the inside of the printer with lubricants; unsuitable
oils can damage the printer mechanism. Contact your Epson
dealer if you think lubrication is needed.
