Printer Care 81
Never spray cleaning solution directly on the printer’s surface; the spray could pene-
trate through the air vents of the printer and damage the internal circuits. Avoid using
abrasive or corrosive solutions or solutions tha t c ontain solve nts, (such as alcohol and
benzene) to clean the print er.
Always test any cleaning solution (such as mild detergent) on a small area of your
printer to check the solution's performance.
Never use sharp or rough implements, such as wire or plastic cleaning pads.
Always close the printer covers gently. Never expose the printer to vibrations.
Do not put a cove r on t he printe r immedi ately afte r usi ng it. Turn it off and wait u ntil it
cools down.
Do not leave the printer’s covers open for any length of time, especially in well-lit
places; light may damage the OPC drum cartridge.
Do not open the printer during printing.
Do not tap paper stacks on the printer.
Do not tilt, lubricate , or disa ssemble the printer.
Do not touch the electrical contacts, gears, or laser beam devices. Doing so may dam-
age the printer and cause the prin t quality to deteriorate.
Keep media in the output tray at minimum level. If the media stacks too high, your
printer may experience media jams and excessive media curl .
Lift the printer from the bottom only, using the carrying gr ips and the carrying bars.
Make sure two people are available to lift the printer when moving it.
When moving the printer, keep the printe r level to avoid toner spillage.
If you get toner on your skin, wash it off with cool water and neutral dete rgent.
WARNING!
If you get toner in your eyes , wash it out immediat ely with cool water and consult a doctor.
