Maintenance
This chapter provides information for maintaining your machine and the toner cartridge.
This chapter includes:
• Cleaning a machine
• Storing the Toner cartridge
• Tips for moving & storing your machine
Cleaning a machine
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty environment, you need to clean your machine
regularly to keep the best printing condition and use your machine longer.
• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or
other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
• If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with toner, we recommend you use cloth or tissue
dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful to you.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any
water drip onto or into the machine.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause
print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and reduces these
problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to cool down.
2. Open the front door and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat surface
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with
a piece of paper, if necessary.
• Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid
touching this area.
