Cleaning the printer
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your printer in a dusty environment, you need to clean your
printer regularly to keep the best printing condition and use your printer longer.
WARNING! Read the following precautions before cleaning the printer: any damages due to user’s mishandling
is not covered by the warranty:
● Turn the printer’s power o and unplug all the power cords.
● Do not disassemble the printer without following the instructions in this guide.
● Do not clean the printer 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 printer: it might cause an electric
shock.
● Wait until the printer is completely dry before plugging the printer in and turning on power.

Cleaning the outside or display screen
Clean the printer cabinet or the display screen 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 printer.
Cleaning the inside
Toner cartridge area:
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer. These
accumulations can cause print quality problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the
printer clears and reduces printing quality problems.
CAUTION: Use a dry lint free cloth when cleaning the inside of the printer, be careful not to damage the transfer
roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner. Printing quality problems can
occur and cause damage to the printer.
● Use a dry lint-free cloth to clean the printer.
● Turn the printer o and unplug the power cord. Wait for the printer to cool down. If your printer has a
power switch, turn the power switch o before cleaning the printer.
