Cleaning
Clean the printer exterior and interior periodically with a dry soft cloth.
When you replace the toner cartridge, be sure to clean the printer interior
with a dry soft cloth. If the printed page gets stained with toner, clean the
printer interior with a dry soft cloth.
Cleaning the Printer Exterior
Clean the printer exterior as follows:
1. Turn off the printer and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the paper cassette and any optional font cards.
3. Open the multi-purpose tray.
4. Wipe the printer body with a soft cloth to remove dust from it.
Dip the cloth in water and wring it out thoroughly for cleaning.
Note
Use water or neutral detergents for cleaning. Cleaning with volatile
liquids such as thinner or benzene damages the surface of the printer.
Do not use cleaning materials that contain ammonia. It might damage the
printer, particularly the toner cartridge.
