Cleaning the machine
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty
environment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the best
printing condition and use your machine longer.
Read the following precautions before cleaning the machine: any damages
due to user’s mis-handling is not covered by the warranty:
•
Turn the machine’s power off and unplug all the power cords.
•
Do not disassemble the machine without following the instructions in this
guide.
•
Do not clean the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts
of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances. They can discolor or distort
the cabinet.
•
Do not use a vacuum cleaner to clean the toner dust, we recommend you
use a cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum
cleaner, toner blows into the air and might be harmful to you.
•
When using a dampened cloth, be careful not to drip any water into the
machine: it might cause an electric shock.
•
For more safety issues, refer to the safety information chapter in the
User’s
Guide

Cleaning the outside
Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly
with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine.
9
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate
inside the machine. These accumulations can cause print quality problems, such
as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the machine clears and
reduces printing quality problems.
