Cleaning RF640 and VS 540 + 640 print heads and wipers

I have been running my RF pretty hard for a month (probably a dozen rolls of media) and it was still printing fine but I thought
maybe I should do a cleaning on it. The wiper and wiper carriage were really gucked up... with stalactites of dried ink hanging from the
carriage. The scraper was pretty bad as well- but hard to clean. It looks like 2 socket head screws hold the whole mechanism in- see below.
It was a pain to dig the scraper out to clean it. What do you do? Thanks Gene
