Cleaning the Media Sensor
The media sensors are located on the platen in the
backside (2 places) and the bottom surface of the head (1
place). When the sensor is covered with dust, etc., it may
cause false detection of media.
Using a cotton swab, remove the dust, etc. accumulated
on the surface of the sensor.
When cleaning the sensor on the lower surface of the
head is cleaned, move the carriage to the left end by the
operations of step 1 of P.4-12 “Cleaning the Ink Head and
the Area around It”, and clean it.
Cleaning the Media Press
When the media press is covered with lint, dust, etc., a
media cannot be fed normally during printing or dust
sticks to the nozzles, which may result in abnormal
printing.
Clean the media press regularly with a dry cloth or paper
towel.
If there is ink on the media press, wipe it away with a
clean stick dipped in washing liquid for maintenance.
• Do not press against the sensor with the cotton
swab. Doing so could damage the sensor.

sure to wipe it away completely so that none
remains on the media press.
