Cleaning Spurs Used in Paper Feeding

If white dots about 1 mm (0.039 in) apart appear on printed documents in the direction paper is fed, clean the spurs.

During spur cleaning, a Cleaning sheet fed from the Top Paper Feed Slot is repeatedly advanced and retracted to clean the spurs (a).

Note

Use the provided Cleaning sheet for spur cleaning.

If the spurs are quite soiled, executing cleaning once may not be enough to clean them completely. Execute cleaning again if one time is not effective.

If a roll is loaded, rewind the roll before this procedure. (→P.145)

Important

Do not fold the Cleaning sheet.

Do not use a frayed Cleaning sheet or Cleaning sheet that has become very dirty.

If the Cleaning sheet is warped, straighten it before use.
