I would first check the printer manual to see what their recommendations are for cleaning. Or, get on the Canon website and see if you can find some hints on how to clean the interior of the printer especially around the print heads.

If you can't find anything official, try cleaning the interior with a warm damp cloth. (water only) Q-Tips work well to get into the small areas but be careful none of the cotton gets stuck. Denatured alcohol will also work and will not destroy plastic parts. Don't use anything stronger though or you might damage the plastic rollers.

Regards.
