Periodic Cleaning
This section describes the necessary cleaning procedures for your machine. Please
note the following before cleaning your machine:
Be sure to disconnect the power cord before cleaning the machine. Since documents
in memory are erased when the power is disconnected, print or send any documents
stored in memory before disconnecting the power cord (1
p. 9-4).
Do not use tissue paper, paper towels, or similar materials for cleaning; they can stick
to the components or generate static charges.
c
Never use volatile liquids such as thinners, benzene, acetone, or any other chemical
cleaner to clean the interior of the machine; these can damage the machine’s
components.
Cleaning the Machine’s Exterior
Follow this procedure to clean the machine’s outer casing:
1 Disconnect the power cord from the
machine.
2 Wipe the machine’s exterior with a
clean, soft, lint-free cloth moistened
with water or diluted dishwashing
detergent solution.
3 When you are finished, reconnect the
power cord.
Cleaning the Machine’s Interior
To prevent toner powder and paper dust from accumulating inside the machine and
affecting print quality, clean the machine’s print area periodically.
Follow this procedure to clean inside the machine:
1 Disconnect the power cord from the machine.
2 Lift the latch and open the front cover.
c
Do not try to open the front cover
without lifting the latch since this
may damage your machine.
