Cleaning the machine
If  printing quality problems occur or if you use your  machine in a  dusty  environment, 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,  use a  cloth  or tissue  dampened  with
water  to  clean it.  If  you use a  vacuum cleaner,  toner blows  in the air and  might be harmful.
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 door  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  spilt  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 door.
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.
