Cleaning the Printer 55
6. Look at the four sets of patterns in your printout. For each set, look at the
printed squares to determine which one in each set is the most even, with no
streaks or lines, and enter its number in the corresponding box on the screen.
If every square in a set contains a line or lines, select the square with the
thinnest line or lines. Then click
Realignment and Print to print another
alignment sheet and repeat this step.
7. Click
Finish to close the Print Head Alignment utility.
Cleaning the Printer
To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it several times a year.
1. Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect the USB cable.
2. Remove all the paper, then use a soft brush to clean the sheet feeder.
3. If the outer case or inside of the sheet feeder are dirty, clean them with a soft
cloth dampened with mild detergent. Keep the printer cover closed to prevent
water from getting inside.
4. If ink accidentally gets inside the printer, wipe it off with a damp cloth in the
area shown below.
Warning:
Don’t touch the gears or any other parts inside the printer.
Caution:
Never use a hard or abrasive brush, or benzine, alcohol, or paint thinner for
cleaning; they can damage the printer components and case. Don’t get water on
the printer components and don’t spray or apply lubricants, oils or grease inside the
printer. Don’t use any cleaning sheets included with special paper; they may jam
inside the printer.
