Cleaning the Printer
1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer and turn it off.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet; then
disconnect the interface cable from the printer.
3. Remove the paper guide. If a pull tractor or an optional
cut-sheet feeder is installed, remove it.
4. Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt
from the outer case and paper guide.
5. If the outer case or paper guide is still dirty, clean it with a
soft, clean cloth dampened with mild detergent dissolved in
water. Keep the printer cover closed to prevent water from
getting inside the printer.
Caution: Never use alcohols or thinners to clean the printer; these
chemicals can damage the printer components as well as the case.
Be careful not to get water on the printer mechanism or electronic
components.
Do not use a hard or abrasive brush.
Do not spray lubricants inside the printer; unsuitable oils can damage
the printer mechanism. Contact an EPSON dealer if you think
lubrication is needed.
