   - When you clean the Cleaning Roller, you hold the Cleaning Roller and widen the bracket of the 
     Cleaning Roller and take out 
the contaminated Cleaning Roller from the SMART Printer. 

     You must wash the contaminated Cleaning Roller with running water and dry it and reinstall into the printer.
