5. Move the carriage beam to its highest position (this takes about 2 minutes).
6. Turn o the printer in the correct way for maintenance operations: see Turn the printer o on page 160.
7. Open the front door.
Remove the edge holders (if they are in use)

2. Replace the edge holder strips if necessary. See Replace an edge holder strip on page 36.
Clean the platen
▲
Clean the platen with a clean cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol, and make sure that the platen is
dry before printing.
NOTE: If you are in an area (such as California) that regulates VOC cleaning and maintenance uids,
instead of isopropyl alcohol use a VOC-certied cleaner such as a properly diluted Simple Green All-
Purpose Cleaner.
