Cleaning the Printer
This section describes how to clean the printer in order to maintain it in good condition and print clean
printouts all the time.
WARNING:
Before cleaning this product, turn off the machine and remove the power cord from the
electrical outlet. Access to a live machine interior can cause electric shocks.
Cleaning the Document Glass
The document glass can be cleaned with a moistened lint-free cloth only. Do not use any kind of cleaning
agent to clean the glass.
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean the exterior of the printer about once a month. Wipe the parts with a moistened lint-free cloth. Then
wipe with another dry lint-free cloth. For stubborn stains, apply a small amount of neutral detergent, and
gently wipe the stain off.
Note:
Do not spray the detergent directly on the printer. The liquid detergent may enter the printer through
a gap and cause problems. Never use cleaning agents other than water or neutral detergent.
Cleaning the Interior
After clearing paper jams or replacing the print cartridge, inspect the inside of the printer before closing the
printer covers.
CAUTION:
• Always follow all warnings and instructions that are marked on or supplied with the equipment.
• Remove any remaining pieces of paper.
• Remove any dust or stains with a dry clean cloth.
