Cleaning the
Printer
3-3 Printer Care
n
Keep the following in mind when storing the printer for an
extended period:
—Unplug the printer.
—Remove the drum unit from inside the printer. After removing
the drum unit from the printer, return it to the aluminum bag in
which it was originally packaged or wrap it in a thick cloth to
protect it from direct sunlight or any other bright light.
Cleaning the Printer
Fine particles of dust from the paper may accumulate inside the
printer. This could affect the printer’s performance. So the printer
should be cleaned on a regular basis to prevent potential malfunc-
tions. You need to clean only the following areas:
n
The transfer assembly
n
The fuser
n
The reversing unit
n
The precharger
n
The outside of the printer
Cleaning Toner Spills
The printer uses a fine black powder known as toner as the “ink” for
the printed image. During removal or replacement of various consum-
able parts, toner occasionally spills onto the printer interior or exterior.
Do not attempt to clean up spilled toner with hot water, as this can
“set” the toner. Use a vacuum cleaner especially designed for trap-
ping toner particles. Regular vacuum cleaners cannot trap the fine
toner particles and will exhaust the fine particles into the air.
Call QMS Service if you cannot clean up serious toner spills. See
appendix A, “QMS Customer Support,” for information on contacting
QMS service.
