Cleaning the printer

During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can

accumulate inside the printer. This buildup can cause print quality

problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Your printer has a cleaning

mode that can correct and prevent these types of problems.

Cleaning the outside of the printer

Clean the cabinet of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth. You can

dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water

drip onto or into the printer.

Cleaning the inside of the printer

There are two methods to clean the inside of the printer:

• Clean the inside manually.

• Print a cleaning sheet, which can be done from the control panel.

Cleaning the inside of the printer manually

1Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the printer

to cool down.

Caution

• Cleaning the cabinet of the printer with cleaning materials

containing large amounts of alcohol, solvents, or other strong

substances can discolor or crack the cabinet.
