Cleaning the Encoder Sheet
IMPORTANT! Cleaning the encoder strip is usually not required.
Lint free wipes help ensure the integrity of the encoder strip, but improper usage of the lint free wipes
may result in damage to the encoder strip and prevent printer functionality.
Be sure to clean in the direction of the arrow shown in the figure above.
Do not directly touch the encoder seat with hands.
Do not bend the encoder seat.
Do not allow the Cleaning Liquid to adhere to the timing belt.
Do not allow the Lint Free Wipes to come into contact with the Guide Rod.
Any of the above can cause a CR encoder error and the encoder may need to be recleaned.
