Maintaining the Printer
Attention
Read all caution and warning labels carefully, making sure to follow any
instructions contained in them. These labels are located on the inside of
the printer’s doors and the interior of the printer body.
Handle the printer with care to preserve its life. Abuse may cause damage
and void your warranty. If dust and paper scraps remain on the inside or
outside of the printer, printer performance and print quality will suffer, so the
printer should be cleaned periodically. Keep the following guidelines in mind.
WARNING!
Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect all interface
cables before cleaning. Do not spill water or detergent into the printer;
otherwise the printer will be damaged and an electric shock may occur.
! Either clean the printer before use, or allow time after unplugging it to
allow the fuser unit to cool down.
Attention
The fuser unit is hot. When the right door is opened, the
fuser unit temperature drops gradually (one hour wait time).
! Be careful when cleaning the inside or removing paper jams, as
the fuser unit and other internal parts may become very hot.
! Do not place anything on the top of the printer.
! Use a soft cloth to clean the printer.
! Never spray cleaning solution directly on the printer’s surface; the spray
could penetrate through the air vents of the printer and damage the
internal circuits. Avoid using abrasive or corrosive solutions or solutions
that contain solvents, (such as alcohol and benzene) to clean the printer.
! Always test any cleaning solution (such as mild detergent) on a small area
of your printer to check the solution’s performance.
! Never use sharp or rough implements, such as wire or plastic cleaning
pads.
! Always close the printer doors gently. Never expose the printer to
vibrations.
! Do not cover the printer immediately after using it. Turn it off and wait until
it cools down.
! Do not leave the printer’s covers and doors open for any length of time,
especially in well-lit places; light may damage the OPC.
