ENWW Cleaning the fuser 79
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
“Toner specks” on page 104 .)
To ensure optimum print quality, HP recommends that you use the cleaning page every time that
you replace the print cartridge or on an automatic interval that you can set up.
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.
