7Caring For Your Printer

Cleaning for ink smears and jams: internal paper path

Approximate time to complete: 3–6 minutes

Clean the printerÕs internal paper path surfaces if you note the following:

■Your prints have stray ink marks on the front or the back.

9922-20

■The media is wrapping around the large black roller inside the exit cover.

Caution Always use clean sheets of paper to clean the paper path. Do not reuse cleaning sheets. High-grade, heavier papers, such as 120 g/m2 (32 lb.) bond, work best.

Do not attempt duplex (two-sided) printing on any type of media. Ink already present on the media offsets onto the internal paper path, requiring you to perform cleaning procedures.

1.Load at least 10 sheets of clean, high-grade paper into the printer. If your printer is conÞgured with just the upper media tray, load that tray. If you have installed the Lower Paper Tray Assembly, you can load either the upper tray or the lower tray. If you use the lower paper tray, make sure that the printerÕs default has been reset so that the printer will feed paper that it needs for its cleaning procedures from the lower paper tray only. Refer to ÒSelecting the Cleaning Page sourceÓ on page 7-16 for instructions.
