Clean the Encoder Strip DAILY
Press the Carriage Release Button (page 25)
to free the Print Carriage from the Capping
Station. Manually move the carriage to the
center of the Assembly. This will allow you to
clean the capping station side of the Encoder
Strip.
You can use foam-tipped swabs, water, glass

use Isopropyl Alcohol pads. Do NOT use
Rubbing Alcohol pads. Wrap the alcohol pad around both sides of the Encoder
strip and gently move the pad in both directions. If the pad becomes black,
use a new pad and clean the Encoder Strip again. Manually return the Print
Carriage back to the Capping Station to clean the rest of the Encoder Strip.
Allow the Encoder Strip AIR DRY.
The Encoder Strip is actually translucent with small marks on it. Be
careful to NOT scratch it or the Print Head sensor will not read it
correctly. Only use FOAM TIP cleaning swabs or Isopropyl Alcohol
Pads when doing any maintenance or cleaning inside your Fast
T-Jet Blazer Express.
Turning Off Your Printer
Turn OFF the machine at night using the
Circuit Breaker Switch. Wait for the printer to
completely power down (the Print Carriage will
dock onto the capping station), then turn off
the main Power Switch located next to the AC
cord. DO NOT turn off your printer at the power
strip.

line marked on the front of the bottle. This will prevent
excess pressure from building up within the cartridge,
which can cause ink to drip from the Print Head.
