Cleaning the Printer
To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it
several times a year. Follow these steps:
1. Turn off the printer and wait for the green Ppower light to
go out.
2. Unplug the power cord and disconnect the printer cable.
3. Remove all the paper, then use a soft brush to clean the
sheet feeder.
4. If the outer case or the inside of the sheet feeder is dirty,
clean it with a soft cloth dampened with mild detergent.
Keep the printer cover closed to prevent water from getting
inside.
