OPERATOR MAINTENANCE
7.1 Introduction
The LG31 printer does not require scheduled preventive maintenance.
Operator maintenance consists of the following:
•
Normal cleaning
•
Changing ribbon cartridges
•
Changing paper
The operator should carry out the following maintenance services when-
ever replacing the ribbon cartridge or as required:
1.
Turn power OFF and disconnect the ac power cable from the power
outlet.
2.
Remove the ribbon cartridge and wipe away any accumulation of
dust from the ribbon guide striker bar area.
3.
Remove paper lint/chaff accumulations inside the printer with a
soft brush or vacuum. The striker bar area and the paper supply
compartment are especially prone to paper dust and dirt build-up.
4.
Reinstall or replace the ribbon cartridge, if print legibility is not
acceptable.
5.
Clean the outside surfaces with a clean damp cloth (do not use
cleaning solutions). Wipe with a dry cloth to dry the cabinet surfaces.
