Clean ink out of the printer's interior with a soft, damp cloth. Don't touch the gears inside the printer. Never use alcohol or thinner for cleaning; they can damage the printer components and case. Don't use a hard or abrasive brush. Don't get water on the printer components and don't spray lubricants or oils inside the printer. Don't use any cleaning sheets included with special media; they may jam inside the printer.
