5.3 Cleaning the Printer
As discussed earlier, the following parts must be cleaned each time the toner container and
waste toner box are replaced:
• Main charger wire
• Main charger grid
• Registration roller
In addition to this, it is recommended that the main charger wire and registration roller are
cleaned periodically at least once a month.
If lines, etc., appear on printed copies, the printouts appear dirty, or faint or blurred printouts
are produced, clean the advanced beam array lenses.
5.3.1 Cleaning the Main Charger Unit
The main charger units need to be cleaned periodically as they get contaminated with
dioxide after long usage. Each main charger unit is comprised of two main parts — the wire
and the grid — which should be separately as explained below.
There are 4 main charger units, one for each toner container. When performing the cleaning
procedure, be sure to clean the main charger unit that corresponds to color of the toner
container that was replaced. The following example explains the procedure to clean the
main charger unit for the black toner container.
