Cleaning the Platen
Marks underneath the media or at the media edges
can be caused by accumulated ink deposits on the
platen transferring to the media. The ink deposits
can be seen mostly in the areas where the edge of
your media rests on the platen. The printer routinely
removes these ink deposits every time you load roll
media. However, depending on your printer usage,
this is sometimes not sufficient. There are two
procedures for cleaning the platen, Automatic and
Manual.
See the User Maintenance Kit
for the frequency for
this procedure.

sequence of the manual cleaning procedure.
A printable version
of the sequence is also available
so that you can take the key illustrations to the
printer, if it is remote from your computer.
