Clean the spittoon
1. Remove the screw, then remove the spittoon from the printer.
2. Wet the surface covered with ink and wait 5 minutes.
3. Scrape the spittoon with a plastic scraper.
4. Clean the spittoon with a lint-free cloth dampened with deionized water.
NOTE: About once a month, turn off the printer, and clean the spittoon area with a lint-free cloth
dampened with a gener
al-purpose industrial cleaner, such as Simple Green industrial cleaner.
Remove any remaining soap foam with a dry cloth.
NOTE: The stain on the spittoon will be different depending on the material you are using. The
e
xpected stain for PA11, PA12, and PA12GB is black, but the stain left by PP or TPU is almost
transparent.
