Removing the transfer roller
Before removing the transfer roller, remove the paper feed unit out of the printer.
Caution Do not touch the transfer roller (sponge) surface. Oil and dust (parti-
cles of paper, etc.) on the transfer roller can significantly deteriorate
the print quality (white spots, etc.).
Remove the transfer roller cover. Facing front the paper feed unit, move it to left.
The transfer roller is held in place by two axle holders that hold the roller axle at
both ends. Hold and pull the gear at the right end of the roller up, then remove the
left end.
Cleaning the transfer roller
To clean the transfer roller, hold it by its gear so that the roller hangs down hori-
zon-tally. Use a vacuum cleaner, moving nozzle along the roller, but do not let the
nozzle directly touch on the roller. Thoroughly clean the entire surface of the roller.
Rreplacing the transfer roller
Carefully clean the left side (facing the front of the paper feed unit) axle end before
replacing the transfer roller. This end of the axle is directly applied with the high
voltage transfer bias.
