Printing a machine report
Press and hold Stop/Clear button for about 4 seconds to print a machine report.
Cleaning your machine
To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality problems occur.
Caution
• Cleaning the machine cabinet with cleaning materials that contain large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or damage the cabinet.
•If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful for you.
•After cleaning, wipe the cabinet to remove any moisture.
Cleaning the outside
Make sure to brush off the dirt on the cloth provided before cleaning the cabinet. Make sure to spray water 4 to 6 times onto the cloth provided, or another cloth suitable for this purpose before cleaning the cabinet, wiping in on direction.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears or reduces these problems. Contact a service representative to clean the parts inside the machine.

Caution
• Do not touch the green surface, the OPC drum or the front of the toner cartridge, with your hands or any other material. Use the handle on each cartridge in order to avoid touching this area.
•If you leave the top cover open for more than a few minutes, the OPC drum can be exposed to light. This will cause damage to the OPC drum. Close the top cover should the installation need to be halted for any reason.
