CHAPTER 6 MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

Clean the printer exterior and interior periodically with a dry soft cloth. When you replace the toner cartridge, be sure to clean the printer interior with a dry soft cloth. If the printed page gets stained with toner, clean the printer interior with a dry soft cloth.

Cleaning the Printer Exterior

Clean the printer exterior as follows:

1.Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.

2.Remove the paper cassette and optional font cartridge/card.

3.Open the multi-purpose tray.

4.Wipe the printer body with a soft cloth to remove dust from it. Dip the cloth in water and wring it out thoroughly for cleaning.

Do not use cleaning materials that contain ammonia. It might damage the printer, particularly the toner cartridge.
