Cleaning
Cleaning your printer
Clean the exterior of your device occasionally by following these steps:
- Turn off your device and unplug the power adapter and any other cables.
- Use only mild cleaning solutions (ammonia-free and non-abrasive) and a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth to clean the exterior of your product. Disinfectant wipes can also be used.
- Clean using a circular motion, ensuring no water seeps into the openings.
- Wipe the surface again with a dry cloth to remove any remaining liquid.
- Wait until the surface is completely dry before turning the device back on.
Cleaning your screen (if applicable)
Warning: Never spray or pour liquid cleaner directly onto the screen.
Turn off your device and unplug the power adapter, then:
- Use a soft, slightly damp (with water), lint-free cloth to clean the screen.
- Gently wipe the screen, ensuring no water seeps into the openings.
- Allow the screen to dry completely before turning the device back on.
- Do not use compressed air. It can compact dust and debris into potentially harmful areas, causing irreversible damage.
Notes:
- For stubborn stains, you can also use wipes specially designed for screens.
- Be careful to avoid liquid runoff onto the device and its peripherals.
Disinfecting your devices
- Turn off your device and unplug the power plug.
- Prepare your cleaning wipes. Hydrogen peroxide or alcohol-based wipes are recommended. Do not use wipes containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach).
- Start by cleaning the back, then the front, and finally the screen (if present) of your device. Gently wipe each surface with the wipe, ensuring no liquid seeps into the openings.
- After the prescribed contact time on the wipes’ packaging, wipe off the residual solvent as soon as possible. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth for this.
- Allow your device to dry completely before turning it back on.
Note: Medical wipes and their chemical composition can affect your device. Depending on the chemicals, frequency, and duration of use, medical wipes can impact the aesthetic appearance and functionality of the system. To minimize this risk, always use standard cleaning wipes and follow the provided instructions.
