Note In addition to cleaning the scanner glass and glass strip with a non-flammable glass cleaner, run your finger tip over the glass to see if you can feel anything on it. If you feel dirt or debris, clean the glass again concentrating on that area. You may need to repeat the cleaning process three or four times. To test, make a copy after each cleaning attempt. i When there is a spot of dirt or correction fluid on the glass strip the printed sample shows a vertical line. After the glass strip is cleaned the vertical line is gone. 70 Cleaning the print head A To maintain good print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed.
