Safety tips for manual printhead cleaning

To minimize the risk of damage to your printer and prevent potential electric shocks or other hazards, please keep in mind the following simple instructions:

• Disconnect the printer: Always turn off and unplug the printer before touching any electrical parts.

• Check electrical safety: Make sure your power supply is properly grounded. If you’re unsure, get a qualified electrician to inspect your setup.

• Wear protective gear: Gloves protect your hands from ink and cleaning chemicals, while safety glasses shield your eyes from splashes.

• Handle spills and allow drying: If any liquid spills inside the printer, turn the printer off immediately. Wipe up the spill with a lint-free cloth, and let all cleaned parts and the printer dry thoroughly before reassembling to prevent short circuits or damage.
