Cleaning the Platen Roller/Paper Sensor
When paper dust accumulates on the platen rollers or the paper sensor, follow the steps below to clean them. To
maintain good functional capabilities, clean them regularly (every 6 months).
1
Turn off the printer, open the roll paper cover.
2
Clean the platen roller and the paper sensor with a cotton swab lightly moistened
with water.
3
Close the roll paper cover after the water has dried.
Cleaning the Charge Terminals
Charges may not be performed properly if there is dirt or foreign material on the charge terminals of the printer
or single charger. Power off the printer and pull the single charger's AC cable from the outlet. Then, wipe off dirt
with a dry cloth or cotton swab. Epson recommends cleaning the parts periodically (generally every 3 months).
CAUTION
After charging, the charge terminals can be very hot. Be careful not to touch them and to let
them cool before you clean them.
Do not damage the charge terminals by touching them with your fingers or any hard object.
Do not expose the charge terminals to water. Perform the cleaning using a dry cloth or cot-
ton swab.
