Recommendations for cleaning the print head
The use of surgical alcohol wipes (available from CodaOctopus) with a soft implement such as a small wooden spatula, is the best way to remove residue. Sharp metal tools, such as screwdrivers or knives must not be used as these can easily damage the print head beyond repair.
