Ready

name appears, press the
Clean
button. The printer displays the
Þrst selection in the menu:
Clean:Light Stripes
<---- Clean Test
2. Press the
Clean
button once again.
3. A series of front panel messages indicate the condition of the
printer as it progresses through a sequence of automatic cleaning
routines. The printer outputs a cleaning page at the end of the
cleaning sequence that you may discard as normal ofÞce waste.
4. When the cleaning sequence is completed, the printer displays the
following message:
Clean:Light Stripes
