Chapter 4 Daily Care
4.1. Cleaning the Print Cartridge
Ink stains stuck to the nozzle plate of the print cartridge or
leaving the Imprinter unused for a while may cause poor
print quality due to blocked ink emission holes in the
nozzle. If your Imprinter has these types of trouble, clean
the nozzle plate of the print cartridge.
ATTENTION
For cleaning, use a dry lint-free cloth, and gently wipe off dirt from
the surface of the nozzle plate. (Do not use a tissue.)
HINT
If the ink emission holes are still blocked after cleaning the print
cartridge, replace it with a new cartridge.
1. Turn off the scanner.
2. Remove the print cartridge.
(Refer to "
3.4. Replacing the Print Cartridge

ATTENTION
Be careful not to touch the nozzle plate or the contact part
with your hand as this may cause poor print quality or
contact errors.
3. Wipe off the dirt on the nozzle plate gently.
4. Make sure that the dirt is removed and then
reinstall the print cartridge. (Refer to "

4.2. Cleaning the Imprinter
While you use the imprinter frequently, ink sticks to the
print cartridge holder base which makes the paper dirty.
As a part of daily maintenance, clean the print cartridge
holder base by following the procedure below.
ATTENTION
When cleaning, use an absorbent cloth or a waste cloth, and
gently wipe off the dirt.
If the ink is dried, gently wipe it with a moistened cloth. (Since the
ink is water soluble, it can be cleaned with water.)
1. Turn off the scanner.
2. Remove the print cartridge.
(Refer to "
3.4. Replacing the Print Cartridge
".)
3. Open the print section.
4. Clean the print cartridge holder base by pressing
a cloth or a waste cloth gently on it to wipe off the
dirt.
ATTENTION
When cleaning, be careful not to touch the metal wheels
located at the print section.
5. Confirm that the dirt is removed and then close
the print section.
6. Reinstall the print cartridge.
(Refer to "
3.4. Replacing the Print Cartridge
