6.2 Cleaning the Printhead
Use of the cleaning cards will normally do an adequate job of cleaning the printer. However, a
separate Printhead cleaning, using swabs, can remove more stubborn deposits when print
anomalies persist. To avoid deposits, only use foam-tipped swabs.
Step 1. Place the printer power switch in the OFF (0) position.
Step 2. Open the printer lid by pressing the cover release button. Open the cover fully to
reveal the Printhead mounted to the inside of the cover.
Step 3. Clean the Printhead by moving an alcohol-moistened swab tip side-to-side across
Printhead elements. Only use moderate force.
Step 4. Allow two to three minutes for the Printhead to dry before placing the printer power
switch in the ON ( | ) position.
Step 5. To reorder swabs, refer to the Media List on the Windows Drivers and User
Documentation CD supplied with this printer.
Caution • Never use a sharp object to scrape deposits from the printhead. Permanent
damage to the printhead will result.
