Check printer status You can check the current status of the printer in the following ways: ● If you access the Embedded Web Server, you see information about the general status of the printer. ● At the front panel, you can see information about paper, ink levels, ink cartridges, and printheads by tapping the corresponding icon. If there are any current alerts, the upper row of the home page shows the top-priority alert. Tap the alert message to see a list of all current alerts, with an icon indicating the severity of each alert. You can tap an individual alert to get help in solving the problem. Clean the exterior of the printer Clean the outside of the printer and all other parts of the printer that you regularly touch as part of normal operation with a damp sponge or a soft cloth and a mild household cleaner such as non-abrasive liquid soap. WARNING! To avoid an electric shock, make sure that the printer is turned off and unplugged before you clean it. Do not let water get inside the printer. CAUTION: Do not use abrasive cleaners on the printer. Maintain the ink cartridges During the normal lifetime of a cartridge, no specific maintenance is required. However, in order to maintain the best print quality, replace a cartridge when it reaches its expiration date. The printer's front panel notifies you when any cartridge reaches its expiration date. You can also check a cartridge's expiration date at any time: see Check printer status on page 136. See also Handling ink cartridges and printheads on page 124. Move or store the printer If you need to move the printer, prepare it correctly to avoid possible damage to it. To prepare the printer, follow the instructions below. 1. Do not remove the ink cartridges or printheads. 2. Make sure that no paper is loaded. 3. Make sure that the printer is idle. 4. Disconnect any cables connecting the printer to a network or computer. CAUTION: Before moving the printer through a doorway, remove the foot extensions if necessary, and make sure to reassemble them before you set up the printer. 136 Chapter 12 Maintaining the printer ENWW
