Cleaning and Maintaining the Printer
Preventative
Maintenance
for the Printer
The 5K-LE Printer is designed for trouble free service with a
minimal amount of care. Periodic cleaning of the Feed Rollers,
Right Hand Slider, Left Hand Slider and Lower Guide
Assembly will be necessary.
Lint and paper dust tends to build up on the feed rollers with
use. When the rollers are glazed or have a yellowish residue,
clean the rollers. Use alcohol to dampen a soft cotton cloth to
clean all rubber rollers.
CAUTION!!
CLEAN PRINT CARTRIDGE, INK SURFACES AND COVERS WITH PLAIN WATER.
ALL RUBBER ROLLERS CAN BE CLEANED WITH ISOPROPYL, DENATURED & RUBBING
ALCOHOL OR WATER ONLY.
USING ANY OTHER CLEANING SOLVENTS WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES.
Keep cleaning solvents with petroleum based products from rubber or plastic parts.
Anything but ALCOHOL or WATER will cause premature breakdown of rubber compound.
Cleaning
the Feed
Rollers
If the print quality is unacceptable select the Purge Print Head
function from the Setup Menu (see section Print Head Purge).
If problems still persist then do the following:
Cleaning
the Inkjet
Cartridge
• Remove the Print Cartridge (See chapter 4).
Clean the nozzles with a soft cotton cloth. Use
a dry cloth or one moistened with water to
clean the ink jet cartridge.
• Remove problem print cartridge and install a
new print cartridge.
Note: The printer performs a self cleaning cycle before
printing and periodically while printing to keep the nozzles
clear of dry ink and debris.
