Cleaning the
Printer
Maintaining the printer in good operating condition is essential to
having a reliable, well-running machine. The cabinet, paper path, and
corotron wires should be cleaned regularly.
Cleaning the
Cabinet
For best results, clean the outside of the printer with a soft, clean,
lint-free cloth. If necessary, dampen the cloth slightly with water. Do not
use detergents.
Cleaning the Paper
Path
Over time, toner may get into the printer, such as from a jammed sheet
of paper to which it has not been fused, from a spill during removal of
the Toner Cartridge, or from moving the printer. Also, dust from paper
may accumulate inside the printer, further impairing performance.
There are several places along the paper path that should be cleaned,
using a lint-free cloth (slightly dampened with cleaning alcohol if
necessary).
Cleaning the Manual Feed Slot
Note
For optimum performance, do not place the printer near vents or
dust-producing equipment. Particles in the air may enter the printer and
cause failures in internal mechanisms.
1 Remove the Manual Feed Guide from the Manual Feed slot.
2 Wipe the slot clean.
There is a delicate media sensor lever about 1 in. (20 cm.)
inside the right hand area of the Manual Feed Slot. Lateral
pressure may damage this lever.
3 Re-insert the Manual Feed Guide.
