Chapter 4 Maintenance 4-10 Cleaning media sensors Media sensors are located on the rear cover and underside of the carriage. The media cannot be detected correctly if dust or debris accumulates on the sensors. Remove any debris using cotton swabs or a soft cloth. Before cleaning the sensor on the bottom of the carriage, move the carriage to the maintenance space. Cleaning media holders Continuing to use the dirty platen will prevent proper feeding of the media. It will also cause dried ink and attached dust to rub against the head nozzle surface and lead to ejection failures (e.g., nozzle clogging or deflection).

P.4-19 [In case of messages to check waste ink] • When the machine is not in use, raise the clamp lever to separate the pinch rollers from the grit rollers. Leaving the pinch rollers in the lowered position for an extended period of time may cause the pinch rollers to become deformed. Deformation of the pinch rollers may prevent the media from being fed correctly. • Avoid touching the cutter blade near the media sensor. The sharp cutter tip poses a risk of injury. • Never use solvents to clean the sensors. • For heavy soiling, wipe using a soft cloth soaked in diluted neutral detergent and thoroughly wrung out. • Turn off the main power supply and unplug the power cable before carrying out maintenance.

Otherwise there is a risk of failure, electric shock, or fire. • For heavy soiling, wipe using a soft cloth soaked in diluted neutral detergent and thoroughly wrung out. • Wait until the platen has cooled sufficiently before cleaning it. • Debris is more likely to accumulate in the grooves where the media holder slides and media is cut. Take care when removing any debris from there. Media holder
