How to Clean Your Lexmark Printer

It’s wonderful having an all-in-one Lexmark printer. You can fax, scan and print with just one machine. This means a lot less maintenance. But to keep it operating smoothly, and not have to spend time and money on future repairs, it’s vital you clean it regularly. It’s easy to clean. First get your supplies. You’ll need a soft cloth, a lint-free cotton cloth, cotton swabs and isopropyl alcohol.

1. You want to start with the cover of your printer. Wipe it down with a soft cloth. If you find a stubborn spot, you can use a little of a neutral cleaner.
   
2. Now get to the glass area of the printer. Don’t put too much pressure on the glass, and wipe in a circular motion. Use the alcohol on the cloth but don’t get it too wet. Wipe clear of any excess liquid.
   
3. You can dampen the lint-free cloth with water to wipe off the touch screen.
4. Now to tackle the automatic document feeder. Lift it all the way up and using the lint-free cloth with a little alcohol, clean the rollers, gently turning them as you clean them.
5. There’s a rail that moves the lens across the document when printing. Use a cotton swab moistened with alcohol to clean this.
