Cleaning and Maintenance 7-9
Maintenance Kit
(PL 1.24)
The system uses a maintenance kit as part of its self-maintenance routine to coat the
print drum with oil before each print. For a detailed explanation on the functions of
the maintenance kit, see "Drum Maintenance System" on page 2-37.
Maintenance Kit Low
A control panel message indicates when the maintenance kit
is low. Printing is still possible when the maintenance kit is low.
Maintenance Kit Empty
When the control panel message indicates that the
maintenance kit is “empty,” the maintenance kit must be replaced before continued
printing is possible. See the installation instructions included with the maintenance
kit.
Note
The maintenance kit oil poses no known adverse health effects. See the Material
Safety Data Sheet at
www.xerox.com/office/msds .
Waste Tray
(PL 1.23)
The waste tray collects ink that has been purged from the printhead’s ink jets. A
control panel message indicates when the waste tray is full, usually after seven
purges. You should then empty the waste tray.
Caution
Never reuse the waste ink; it can damage the printhead.
