How can I perform an advanced cleaning of the whole printer?

Advanced cleaning can be done when the printer is dirty, after a long period of operation or simply to prevent any feeding issue.
Important note: this cleaning procedure is different from the one recommended in the warranty conditions.
For the feeder:

  • To manually clean the feeder rollers, open the door and send the following command to the printer: Sci
  • Take a cleaning card and insert it in one feeder (#1 or #2), while pressing the black card sensor at the same time.
  • Do not hesitate to use several cleaning cards.

IMPORTANT: do not let the card enter the feeder. Hold it tight. Feeder engines are powerful!
Press the button from the control panel to stop the cleaning process!


For the flip-over station:
