Don't use a hard or abrasive brush. Don't get water on the printer components. Don't spray lubricants or oils inside the printer. Caution: To avoid damage, always leave the ink cartridges installed when transporting the printer. Cleaning the Printer To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it several times a year, following these steps: 1. Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect the printer cable. 2. Remove the paper from all the paper feeders. 3. Carefully clean away dust and dirt with a soft, damp cloth. 4. Clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, damp cloth. Keep the printer cover closed so water doesn't get inside. 5. Clean ink out of the printer's interior with a soft, damp cloth. Transporting the Printer To move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it for transportation in its original box. Follow these steps: 1. Turn on the printer and wait until the print heads lock in the far right position. Then turn off the printer. 2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then disconnect the interface cable from the printer. 3. Remove the paper from all the feeders. Then remove the paper support, output tray, and cable cover (if installed). 4. Repack the printer and attachments in the original box using the protective materials that came with it. See the Notice Sheet that was packed with the printer. Be sure to keep the printer level, in an upright position, as you transport it. If print quality declines after transporting the printer, clean the print heads; if output is misaligned, align the print heads. See the instructions in this chapter. 6-10
