PRINTING REPORTS

You can print a configuration report from the machine’s control panel. Use the configuration page to view the current settings, to help troubleshoot

problems. In Ready mode, press and hold the Stop button on the control panel for about 5 seconds.

CLEANING YOUR MACHINE

To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print quality problems occur.

• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.

•If your machine 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.

Cleaning the outside

Clean the cabinet of the machine 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 machine.

Cleaning the inside

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears or reduces these problems.

1.Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down.

2.Press the release button, completely open the front cover.
