Cleaning the Printer
1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer and turn it off.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet; then
disconnect the interface cable from the printer.
3. Remove the paper guide. If a pull tractor or an optional
cut-sheet feeder is installed, remove it.
4. Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt
from the outer case and paper guide.
5. If the outer case or paper guide is still dirty, clean it with a
soft, clean cloth dampened with mild detergent dissolved in
water. Keep the printer cover closed to prevent water from
getting inside the printer.
Never use alcohols 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 an EPSON dealer if you think lubrication is
needed.
Transporting the Printer
If you need to transport your printer some distance, carefully
repack it using the original box and packing materials, as
described below.
You need to move the print head by hand to remove
the ribbon cartridge. If you have just used the printer,
the print head may be hot; let it cool for a few
minutes before touching it.
