4 Maintaining the printer

Periodically, you need to complete certain tasks to maintain optimum print quality. These tasks are covered in this chapter.

If several people are using the printer, you may want to designate a key operator to do the setup and maintenance of your printer. Refer printing problems and maintenance tasks to this key operator.

In the U.S., contact Lexmark at 1-800-539-6275 for information about Lexmark Authorized Supplies Dealers in your area. In other countries or regions, visit the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com or contact the place where you bought your printer.

Storing supplies

Choose a cool, clean storage area for your printer supplies. Store supplies right side up in their original packaging until you are ready to use them.

Do not expose supplies to:

•Direct sunlight

•Temperatures above 35°C (95°F)

•High humidity (above 80%)

•Salty air

•Corrosive gases

•Heavy dust

Determining the status of supplies

The printer operator panel alerts you once a supply item or maintenance is required. You can also view the status of supplies in your printer on the operator panel unless the printer is printing or in a busy state. The header or gray area at the top of the display will indicate the printer is Ready and lets you know if any trays are low. Selecting Status / Supplies on the display will open the Status / Supplies screen where you can view the status of the various trays and open the supplies screen to view the current status of your print cartridge.
