CLEANING YOUR MACHINE
To maintain print and scan quality, follow the cleaning procedures below
each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality
problems occur.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You can 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 or
reduces these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to
cool down.
2. Using the handle, completely open the front cover.
3. Grasp the handles on the toner cartridge and pull to remove four
cartridges from the machine.
4. Pull the waste toner container out of the machine using its handle.
5. Pull the imaging unit out of the machine using the groove on the front of
the imaging unit.
6. With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the
toner cartridges area and their cavities.
• 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 its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we
recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water to
clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blown into the air may
be harmful.
• Do not touch the green surface, the imaging unit with your hands
or any other material.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the imaging unit
• If you leave the front cover open for more than a few minutes, the
imaging unit can be exposed to light. This will cause damage to
the imaging unit. Close the front cover should the installation need
to be halted for any reason.
• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash
it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
• If your machine or its surrounding is contaminated with toner, we
recommend you to use a cloth or tissue dampened with water to
clean it. If you use a vacum cleaner, toner blows into the air then
might be harmful to you.
After cleaning, let the machine to dry completely.
