Maintaining Your Printer Your Kodak ESP 9 All-in-One printer requires little maintenance. However, Kodak recommends cleaning the scanner glass and lid backing regularly to remove dust and fingerprints. Fingerprints and other debris on the glass or lid backing could slow down the printer’s performance, and affect the quality and accuracy of scanning.
Cleaning the scanner lid Minor debris can accumulate on the document backing located underneath the scanner lid of the Kodak printer. 1. Unplug the printer and raise the lid. 2. Clean the underside with a soft cloth or sponge, slightly moistened with a mild soap and warm water.
For example, you can check the status of the printer’s inkjet nozzle to ensure high-quality prints. Kodak recommends that you run a nozzle check if you are experiencing changes in image quality. You can also use the Printhead Alignment function if you see degradation in print quality.
Replacing ink cartridges Your Kodak printer uses separate black and color ink cartridges. The ink levels are shown on the control panel and in the printer software. For the best quality prints, store ink cartridges in locations where the temperature does not exceed 85°F (30°C).
