CLEANING YOUR PRINTER
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.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the cabinet of the printer 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 printer.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate
inside the printer. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as
toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the printer clears or
reduces these problems.
1. Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the printer to
cool down.
2. Using the handle, completely open the front cover.
Before clearing the memory, ensure that all fax jobs have been
completed, or you will lose those jobs.
Some menus may not appear in the display depending on options or
models. If so, it is not applicable to your printer.

• Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with cleaning materials
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong
substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
• If your printer or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we
recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to
clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blown into the air may
be harmful.
• Do not touch the green surface, the OPC drum or the front of the
toner cartridge, with your hands or any other material. Use the
handle on each cartridge in order to avoid touching this area.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the paper transfer belt.
• If you leave the front cover open for more than a few minutes, the
OPC drum can be exposed to light. This will cause damage to the
OPC drum. Close the front cover should the installation need to
be halted for any reason.
