6.Cleaning

This chapter describes the cleaning tasks you need to perform regularly on the 96/4635/180 printer.

Cleaning the keyboard, monitor, and the exterior of the Printer Controller

Clean the exterior surfaces of your Printer Controller, including monitor and keyboard, as required. Clean daily, if possible.

Use the following supplies to clean the exterior surfaces:

Monitor: Use a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with a glass cleaner. Do not spray the liquid directly onto the monitor since it may cause damage.

Keyboard: Use a mild household detergent that has been poured or sprayed onto a cloth lightly dampened with water. Do not saturate the cloth; just dampen it.

Exterior: Use a mild household detergent that has been poured or sprayed onto a cloth lightly dampened with water. Do not saturate the cloth; just dampen it.

Caution: Do not allow liquids to drip onto anything electrical or mechanical. For the same reason, never spray or pour the cleaner directly onto the keyboard or the exterior surfaces of the system.

Cleaning the sensors and the reflective surfaces

Sensors at various points along the paper path indicate where sheets of paper are passing. After a sheet has passed a sensor, if too much time elapses before another sheet arrives, the system determines a jam has occurred, and printing stops. If a sensor becomes dirty, it may not accurately detect sheets passing and may give incorrect jam information. Therefore, it is important to clean sensors regularly.

Sensors are usually cleaned by your Xerox service representative as part of regular maintenance. However, under certain conditions you may be directed to clean them yourself by the Xerox Customer Support Center or by your local operating company.

1. Brush or wipe the sensor window lightly.

Note: If the sensor is very dirty, clean it with a small amount of alcohol on a swab.

2. Remove any paper dust present in the area.

96 specifications

The Xerox 96, released in 1975, was a groundbreaking entry in the world of computer printers, marking a significant evolution in document copying and printing technology. Designed primarily for corporate and professional environments, the Xerox 96 brought forth several innovative features and characteristics that set it apart from its predecessors.

At the heart of the Xerox 96 was its unique electrophotographic printing process. This technology allowed for high-quality, high-speed reproduction of documents and images, distinguishing it from traditional printing methods that were slower and less efficient. The device utilized a photoconductive surface that could hold an electrostatic charge, enabling it to create a master copy that could be reproduced numerous times without loss of clarity. This was a significant advantage for businesses needing multiple copies of documents quickly and efficiently.

One of the standout features of the Xerox 96 was its automatic document feeder, which streamlined the copying process. Users could load up to 100 sheets of paper without the need for constant manual intervention. This automation not only saved time but also enhanced productivity, an essential factor for busy offices that relied on accurate and timely documentation.

Moreover, the Xerox 96 supported various paper sizes and types, making it versatile for different business needs. Whether producing standard letter-sized documents or oversized printouts, the machine accommodated a range of formats. The ability to print in both black and white also catered to the varied requirements of different users, from simple text documents to more complex graphics.

In terms of technological advancements, the Xerox 96 incorporated high-capacity toner cartridges, which reduced the frequency of replacements and ensured consistent print quality. The machine also featured a user-friendly interface, allowing even those unfamiliar with complex printing systems to operate it with ease.

Durability and reliability were other critical characteristics of the Xerox 96. Designed to withstand the rigors of daily use in a demanding business environment, the machine boasted a robust build quality that ensured longevity.

In conclusion, the Xerox 96 was a pivotal development in the realm of document duplication, marked by its advanced electrophotographic technology, automation features, versatility, and durability. Its introduction not only enhanced productivity in professional settings but also laid the groundwork for subsequent innovations in printing technology, solidifying Xerox's reputation as a leader in the industry.
