Handle the printer with care to preserve its life. Abuse may cause damage. Keep the following guidelines in mind:

￿Don’t place anything on the top of the printer.

￿Avoid spraying cleaning solution directly on the printer’s surface; the spray could penetrate through the air vents of the printer and damage the internal circuits.

￿Be careful when cleaning the inside or removing paper jams, as the fixing assem- bly and other internal parts become very hot. Leave the printer cover open before handling the inside of the printer.

￿Don’t close the covers abruptly or expose the printer to vibrations.

￿Don’t cover the printer immediately after using it. Turn it off, and wait until it cools down.

￿Don’t leave the printer open for any length of time, especially in well-lit places; light may damage the toner cartridge and OPC belt.

￿Don’t open the printer during printing and do not tap paper stacks on the printer.

￿Don’t tilt, lubricate, or disassemble the printer.

￿Don’t touch the electrical contacts, gears, or laser beam devices. Doing so may damage the printer and cause the print 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.
