Epson PRO 3800 Guida Informativa

To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it several times a 
year.

1. Make sure the printer is turned off, then unplug the power cord and 

disconnect the printer from your system. Let the printer sit for a minute.

2. If the outer case is dirty, clean it with a soft, clean cloth dampened with 

mild detergent. Keep the ink cartridge compartment closed to prevent 
water from getting inside.

3. If the front manual tray is extended, close it by pushing it in.

4. Open the top cover and then use a soft, lint-free cloth to carefully 

remove any dust or dirt inside the printer. If the back of a printout is 
soiled, carefully clean the plastic ribs using a soft, lint-free cloth wiping 
in the direction of the arrows.

If the problem still occurs, clean the area using a soft, lint-free, 
dampened cloth. Then wipe the inside of the printer dry with a dry, 
lint-free, soft cloth.

WARNING: Be careful not 
to touch the gears inside the 
printer.

Caution: To avoid 
damaging the 
components as well as 
the case, never use 
alcohol or thinners to 
clean the printer. 

Be careful not to get 
water on the printer 
mechanism or on-screen 
components.

Don’t use a hard or 
abrasive brush.

Do not touch the ink 
absorption pads; 
otherwise, printouts may 
be soiled.

Don’t spray the inside 
of the printer with 
lubricants; unsuitable 
oils can damage the 
mechanism. Contact 
Epson if you think the 
printer needs lubrication.
