Cleaning the paper path
NOTE: Before doing the following procedure, clean the machine
thoroughly and use the roller cleaning pads to clean the feed
and separator rollers — start with a clean machine.
Use the Paper Path Cleaning sheet to clean the paper path rollers.
Periodically feed a cleaning sheet with the gum side up through the
machine in both the portrait and landscape orientation.
Regular use of Paper Path Cleaning sheets may result in fewer major
cleanings with the roller cleaning pads.
The paper path should be cleaned daily. Before you clean the paper
path, be sure the feed and separator rollers and imaging guides have
been cleaned.
To clean the paper path:
1. To ensure complete coverage of the transport rollers, feed the
cleaning sheet in the center, and to the left and right of the feeder
document guides.
2. Repeat the procedure until no further residue is picked up by the
cleaning sheet.
3. Using a clean Paper Path Cleaner sheet, repeat Step 1 to verify that
the rollers are clean.
4. Turn the gum side down, and repeat Steps 1 through 3.
NOTE: When the gum side is down, it may be necessary to hold
down the gap release lever to allow the Paper Path Cleaner
sheet to feed past the separator roller.
NOTE: If there are feeder errors after cleaning the feed and separator
rollers, refer to the section entitled “Adjusting the feed and
separator roller gap”, in Chapter 2.
