Cleaning the Printer

To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it several times a year.
Follow these steps:

1. Unplug the printer’s power cord and disconnect the printer cable.

2. Remove all the paper from the sheet feeder.

3. Clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, damp cloth.

4. Clean ink out of the printer’s interior with a soft, damp cloth.

Don’t touch the gears inside the printer.

Never use a hard or abrasive brush, or alcohol or thinner for cleaning; they
can damage the printer components and case.

Don’t get water on the printer components and don’t spray lubricants or
oils inside the printer.

Don’t use any cleaning sheets included with special media; they may jam
inside the printer.
