Cleaning guidelines

Canon’s basic guidelines for cleaning the parts of your devices that people touch most, such as control panels, covers and jam areas. They apply to imageRUNNER ADVANCE, imagePRESS, imageCLASS, varioPRINT, imagePROGRAF and imageFORMULA devices.

What to use

• Lint-free or microfiber cloths
• Ethanol or isopropyl alcohol of at least 70% concentration
• Glass cleaner, for the platen glass only
• Disposable gloves

Steps

1. Turn the device off and unplug it.
2. Put on disposable gloves.
3. Apply alcohol to a cloth. Don’t spray anything directly onto the device.
4. Wipe the control panel, covers, handles and jam areas.
5. Clean the platen glass with glass cleaner on a lint-free cloth.
6. Let all surfaces dry completely before you plug the device in and turn it on.
7. Throw away the gloves and cloths.

Safety

• Alcohol is flammable. Never use it near fire or an open flame.
• Don’t use cleaners with volatile solvents, such as paint thinner or benzene.
• Store and use alcohol carefully, and follow the instructions and warnings on the product.
