This chapter describes how to maintain the machine.
Cleaning
Cautions to Take When Cleaning
• Do not remove any covers or screws other than those explicitly mentioned in this manual. Inside
this machine are high voltage components that are an electric shock hazard and laser
components that could cause blindness. Contact your sales or service representative if any of the
machine's internal components require maintenance, adjustment, or repair.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify this machine. Doing so risks burns and electric shock.
Note again that exposure to the laser components inside this machine risks blindness.
• The inside of this machine becomes very hot. Do not touch the parts labeled " " (indicating a
hot surface).
• Be sure to disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and clean the prongs and the area around
the prongs at least once a year. Allowing dust to build up on the plug constitutes a fire hazard.
Clean the machine periodically to maintain high print quality.
Dry wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. If dry wiping is not enough, wipe with a soft, damp cloth that is
wrung out well. If you still cannot remove the stain or grime, use a neutral detergent, wipe over the area
with a well-wrung damp cloth, and then dry wipe the area and allow it to dry.
• To avoid deformation, discoloration, or cracking, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzine
and thinner, or spray insecticide on the machine.
• If there is dust or grime inside the machine, wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
• You must disconnect the plug from the wall outlet at least once a year. Clean away any dust and
grime from the plug and outlet before reconnecting. Accumulated dust and grime pose a fire
hazard.
• Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small objects to fall inside the machine.
