Periodic Routine Maintenance

Use the cleaning brush supplied with the printer. This L-shaped tool has two cleaning pads: one for the corona wire and the other for the precharger wire inside the print unit. Use the pad on the shorter branch engraved “T”.

Remove the print unit and store it in a dark, level, steady place. Be careful not to damage the green drum surface. Using the tool as shown in this figure, clean the corona wire. Fit the positioning cut onto the wire housing frame and gently move the tool left and right two or three times along the length of the wire to remove any dirt or other substance. Be careful not to break or otherwise damage the wire.

After you have cleaned the printer, install the print unit and close the upper door.

Cleaning the Paper Guide before the Corona Wire

Perform this procedure when printouts show small spots of toner smudging especially near the top edge of paper.

Open the upper door and remove the print unit. Be careful not to damage the green drum surface. Look for dust on the paper guide before the corona wire. Use a clean, lint free cloth to gently remove any dust from the entire surface of the paper guide.
