Clean the device

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the device. Over time, this buildup can cause print-quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing (see Solve print- quality problems on page 178).

Clean the exterior

Use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off of the exterior of the device.

Clean the scanner glass

Dirty glass, from fingerprints, smudges, hair, and so on, slows down performance and affects the accuracy of special features such as fit-to-page and copy.

NOTE: If streaks or other defects appear only on copies produced using the automatic document feeder (ADF), clean the scanner strip (step 3). It is not necessary to clean the scanner glass.

1.Open the scanner lid.

2.Clean the glass by using a damp, lint-free cloth.

CAUTION: Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, ammonia, ethyl alcohol, or carbon tetrachloride on any part of the device; these can damage the device. Do not place liquids directly on the glass. They might seep under it and damage the device.

3.Clean the scanner strip by using a damp, lint-free cloth.
