Your printer automatically picks up a sheet of paper from the
tray and prints out a cleaning sheet with the dust or toner
particles on it.

AINTAINING

OUR

RINTER

Plug in the power cord, and turn the printer on.

Note:

The cartridge

cleaning process takes
some time. To stop the
printing, turn the power
off.

Cleaning the Printer

Printing a cleaning sheet

If you are experiencing blurred, faded or smeared printouts.
Printing a cleaning sheet cleans the drum inside the toner
cartridge. This process will produce a page with toner debris,
which should be discarded.

Insure the printer is turned on and in the ready mode with
paper loaded in the automatic input tray.

Press and hold down

Demo

on the control panel for about ten

seconds until all control panel lights remain lit, then release.

Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the cover.
