6. DAILY MAINTENANCE &
TROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter describes routine maintenance such as cleaning, exchanging Eco-Solvent Plus ink cassettes,
etc.; and offers solutions for minor problems that may occur during printer operation.
6.1. CLEANING THE PRINTER
¾ Use a soft cloth for cleaning off Eco-Solvent Plus ink stains.
Caution:
Power should be switched OFF when cleaning the printer.
Do not use thinner or benzene, as these liquids may damage the printer’s exterior
coating.
Do not clean those parts of the printer connected to a power source.
The printer creates paper dust while operating. Therefore, regularly wipe the paper dust
off your machine. Do not blow it off.
For large Eco-Solvent Plus ink stains, use a dust-free cloth, dampened with Eco-Solvent
Plus cleaning liquid.
¾ Wipe off paper dust with a soft cloth dampened with Eco-Solvent Plus cleaning liquid from
right to left on the printing board and the cutter slot.
Important:
The printing board and the cutter slot are the locations where paper dust easily
accumulates. This may cause bad printing quality or bad sheeting-off quality.
Use a soft cloth dampened with Eco-Solvent Plus cleaning liquid to wipe off paper
dust from the pressure roller.
Clean the drive roller with a plastic brush.
