D. Cleaning during a Service Visit
Following the procedures below, clean the printer during service visit.
1. Transfer charging roller
As a general rule, the transfer charging roller is not to be touched or cleaned. If it is unavoid-

or solvent. Make sure not to contaminate the roller with solvent or oil.

roller
