Description

This article shows how to perform a Bottom Plate Cleaning on the imagePROGRAF TC-20 / TC-20M.

Solution

Remove stains from the inside of the printer. If the inside of the printer becomes dirty, printed paper may get dirty, so we recommend performing cleaning regularly.

You will need a sheet of A4 or letter size plain paper. *

* Be sure to use a new piece of paper.

  1. Select Setup icon (cog) (Setup) on the Home Screen.

  2. Select Maintenance icon (screwdriver and pliers) Maintenance.

  3. Select Bottom Plate Cleaning.

    Select Bottom Plate Cleaning (outlined in red)

  4. Select Yes.

  5. Follow the message to remove any paper from the top feed, then select OK.

  6. Fold the prepared plain paper in half lengthwise, unfold the paper, then select OK.

  7. Load the plain paper horizontally in the top feed with the open side up.

    Load the plain paper horizontally in the top feed with the open side up

  8. Select OK.

    Bottom Plate Cleaning is performed, and paper is fed.

    Check the folded parts of the ejected paper. If they are smudged with ink, perform Bottom Plate Cleaning again.

  9. When the completion message appears, select OK.

     When performing Bottom Plate Cleaning again, be sure to use a new piece of paper.

If printed pages are still dirty even after cleaning again, the inside of the printer may be dirty. Clean the inside of the printer.
