Fuser lubricant and pressure roll
wiper
This chapter describes how to add fuser lubricant and how to
replace the pressure roll wiper on your system.
Adding fuser lubricant
The fuser assembly uses heat and pressure to fuse the print
image to the paper. It is critical that the fuser be kept lubricated
with fuser lubricant and that its reservoir be kept full. This
chapter describes the procedure for adding fuser lubricant to the
printer.
You need to add fuser lubricant when the Attention light turns a
steady yellow and the following message displays on the printer
control console:
LOW ON FUSER LUBRICANT
Once the lubricant runs out, the printer stops and the following
message displays:
FUSER LUBRICANT CONTAINER IS EMPTY
Your service representative usually adds fuser lubricant.
However, you might choose to add the fuser lubricant yourself if
you have been trained in this procedure.
To add fuser lubricant:
1. Open the printer doors.
2. Place a dropcloth on the floor under the fuser area.
WARNING
If any fuser lubricant is spilled, remove it immediately. Fuser
lubricant spills cause the floor to be very slippery.
3. Press down on the green lever (A), moving it
counterclockwise.
