About USB memory
USB memory devices are available with a variety of memory capacities 
to give you more room for storing documents, presentations, downloaded 
music and videos, high resolution photographs, or whatever other files 
you want to store or move.
You can do the following on your machine using a USB memory device:
• Scan documents and save them on a USB memory device.
• Print data stored on a USB memory device.
• Back up  Address Book /Phone Book  entries and the system settings 
of your machine.
• Restore backup files to the machine’s memory.
• Format the USB memory device.
• Check the available memory space.
Plugging in a USB memory device
The USB memory port on the front of your machine is designed for 
USB V1.1 and USB V2.0 memory devices. Your machine supports USB 
memory devices with capacity of up to 512 MB. 
You must use only an authorized USB memory device with an A plug type 
connector.
Use only a metal/shielded  USB memory device.
Note
There are two USB plug types.
Insert a USB memory device into the USB memory port on the front of 
your machine.
Scanning to a USB memory device
You can scan a document and save the scanned image onto a USB 
memory device. There are two ways of doing this: you can scan to the 
device using the default settings, or you can customize your own scan 
settings.
Scanning
1 Insert a USB memory device into the USB memory port on your 
machine.
2 Load originals face up into the ADF, or place a single original face 
down on the scanner glass.
For details about loading an original, see page 5.1.
3 Press  Scan/Email .
4 Press  OK when  Scan to USB  appears on the bottom line of the 
display.
Cautions
• Do not remove the USB memory device while the machine is in  operation, or writing to or reading from USB memory. This may 
damage your machine.
• If your USB memory device has certain features, such as  security settings and password settings, your machine may not 
automatically detect it. For details about these features, see 
the device’s User’s Guide.

Cleaning your machine
To maintain print and scan quality, follow the cleaning procedures below 
each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality 
problems occur.
Caution
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.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You can 
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 or 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 .
Cautions
• 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 and the toner cartridge cavity.
Caution
While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to touch 
the transfer roller, located underneath the toner cartridge. Oil 
from your fingers can cause print scan quality problems. 
4 Locate the long strip of glass (LSU) inside the top of the cartridge 
compartment, and gently swab the glass to see if dirt turns the white 
cotton black.
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.
1Slightly 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 ADF glass until it is clean 
and dry.
4 Wipe the underside of the scanner lid and white sheet until it is 
clean and dry.
5 Close the scanner lid.
Maintaining the toner cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in 
mind:
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for use. 
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty does not cover 
damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your machine.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for  more than a few minutes.

Expected cartridge life
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print 
jobs require. When printing text at ISO 19752 5% coverage, a new toner 
cartridge lasts an average of either 8,000 or 4,000 pages. (The original 
toner cartridge supplied with the machine lasts an average of 4,000 
pages.) The actual number may also be different depending on the print 
density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be 
affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and 
media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the 
cartridge more often.
Redistributing toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
• White streaks or light printing occurs. 
•Toner Low  appears on the display.
•The  Status  LED blinks red. 
If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by 
redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white 
streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed the 
toner.
1 Open the front cover.
2 Pull the toner cartridge out.
3Thoroughly roll the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner 
evenly inside the cartridge.
Note
If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and 
wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
Caution
Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. 
Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area. 
4 Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge 
into the opening in the machine. 
Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within 
the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it 
locks into place completely.

5 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
Replacing the toner cartridge
When the toner cartridge is completely empty:
•Toner Empty  appears on the display. 
•The  Status  LED blinks red. 
• The machine stops printing. For the SCX-5530FN, incoming faxes are  saved in memory. 
At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. For order 
information for toner cartridges, see page 12.1.
Note
You can set the machine to disregard the  Toner Empty 
message and to continue printing. See page 13.6.
1 Open the front cover.
2 Pull the toner cartridge out.
3Remove the new toner cartridge from its bag. 
4 Remove the packing tape and roll the cartridge 5 or 6 items to 
distribute the toner.
Thoroughly roll the cartridge to assure maximum copies per 
cartridge. Save the box and the plastic bag for shipping.
Note
If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and 
wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
Caution
Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. 
Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
5 Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge 
into the opening in the machine. 
Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within 
the machine will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it 
locks into place completely.
6 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.
Cleaning the drum
If there are streaks or spots on your print, the OPC drum of the toner 
cartridge may require cleaning.
1Before starting the cleaning procedure, make sure that paper is 
loaded in the machine. 
2 Press  Menu until System Setup  appears on the bottom line of the 
display and press  OK.
3 Press the  Scroll buttons until  Maintenance  appears and press  OK.
4 Press  OK when  Clean Drum  appears. 
The machine prints out a cleaning page. Toner particles on the drum 
surface are affixed to the paper. 
If the problem remains, repeat steps 1 through 4.
