How do I clean the exterior of the printer?
Clean the outside of the printer and all other parts of the printer that you regularly
touch as part of normal operation (e.g. ink cartridge drawer handles) as required with
a damp sponge or a soft cloth and a mild household cleaner such as non-abrasive
liquid soap.
Warning To avoid an electric shock, make sure that the printer is switched
OFF and unplugged before you clean it. Do not let water get inside the printer.
Caution Do not use abrasive cleaners on the printer.
How do I clean the platen?
You should plan to clean your printer's platen on a regular basis, every few months or
when needed.
Note If you print on wide paper after using narrower paper for some time, you
may find that the left side of the platen has become dirty and will leave marks
on the back of the paper if not cleaned.
Follow these instructions to clean the platen.
1. Unload all paper from the printer.
2. Open the window.
