CLEANING A MACHINE

If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty

enviroment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the best

printing condition and use your machine longer.

Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials

containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong

substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.

If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with

toner, we recommend you use cloth or tissue dampened with

water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the

air and might be harmful to you.

Cleaning the outside

Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth

slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the

machine.

Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate

inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as

toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and

reduces these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to

cool down.

2. Open the front cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean

flat surface

To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to

light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of

paper, if necessary.

Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner

cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching

this area.

3. With a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the

toner cartridge area.

While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage

the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents

such as benzene or thinner to clean. Printing quality problems can

occur and cause damage to the machine.

4. Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge

compartment and gently clean the glass with a swab.

5. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.
6. Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.

Cleaning the scan unit

Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We

suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of each day and during the

day, as needed.
1. Slightly dampen a soft, lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.
2. Open the scanner lid.
3. Wipe the surface of the scanner glass and the document feeder glass

until it is clean and dry.
