Cleaning the fuser
Run the printer cleaning page to keep the fuser free of toner and paper particles that can
sometimes accumulate. Accumulation of toner and particles can cause specks to appear on the
front or back side of your print jobs. (See
.)
To ensure optimum print quality, HP recommends that you use the cleaning page every time you
replace the print cartridge or on an automatic interval that you can set up. If you have an optional
duplexer installed, you must run cleaning pages manually.
The cleaning procedure takes about 2.5 minutes to complete. A message (either
CREATING
CLEANING PAGE
or
CLEANING
) appears on the printer control panel display while the cleaning is
taking place.
Running the cleaning page manually
In order for the cleaning page to work properly, print the page on copier-grade paper (not bond,
heavy, or rough paper).
If you have an optional duplexer installed, this cleaning method is the only one you can use. To
ensure that automatic cleaning is off, see
“Running the cleaning page automatically” on page 90
.
