Cleaning
6-2 Guide to Performing Routine Maintenance
CAUTION
Do not allow liquids to drip onto anything electrical or
mechanical. For the same reason, never spray or pour the
cleaner directly onto the keyboard or the exterior surfaces of the
system.
Cleaning the sensors and the reflective surfaces
Sensors at various points along the paper path indicate where
sheets of paper are passing. After a sheet has passed a sensor,
if too much time elapses before another sheet arrives, the
system determines a jam has occurred, and printing stops. If a
sensor becomes dirty, it may not accurately detect sheets
passing and may give incorrect jam information. Therefore, it is
important to clean sensors regularly.
Sensors are usually cleaned by your Xerox service
representative as part of regular maintenance. However, under
certain conditions you may be directed to clean them yourself by
the Xerox Customer Support Center or by your local operating
company.
1. Brush or wipe the sensor window lightly.
NOTE: If the sensor is very dirty, clean it with a small amount
of alcohol on a swab.
2. Remove any paper dust present in the area.
CAUTION
Do not use any abrasives or strong solvents on the sensor.
