6 Troubleshooting

Cleaning Requirements

Clean the printer every six months or after every 1000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. If the printer is located in a dusty area or is used for heavy duty printing, clean it more often.

WARNING Disconnect the power source before cleaning the printer.

WARNUNG Vor dem Säubern des Druckers ist die Netzverbindung zu unterbrechen.

ATTENTION Débranchez l’alimentation avant de nettoyer l’imprimante.

Exterior Cleaning

Clean the outside of the cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth and mild detergent soap. (Dishwashing liquid works well.) Do not use abrasive powders or chemical solvents. Clean the windows with plain water or mild window cleaner. Always apply the cleaning solution to the cloth; never pour cleaning solution directly onto the printer.
