Cleaning the Printing System — Overview
Introduction
This section shows you how often to clean the different components and how to carry
out this cleaning.
Caution:
■
Printing system could start unexpectedly.
Before cleaning, ensure that the printing system is in the 'Stop' status and that the
printing system is not being remotely controlled by another operator panel.
■
There is a danger of slipping on toner or developer spill.
Clean up spilled toner or developer immediately using a damp cloth or vacuum
cleaner. Do not use warm water as it makes the material soft and sticky.
■
There can be a high build-up of static charge when vacuuming the toner spill.
Always use an industrial vacuum cleaner with a grounded suction tube, rubber nozzle
and filter set for fine dust. For larger toner quantities, the industrial vacuum cleaner
must be explosion-proof.
Attention:
■
The printing system may be damaged if the wrong cleaning materials or equipment
are used. Only use the prescribed cleaning materials and equipment (see ‘Cleaning
Agents and Cleaning Intervals’ on page 270). Please follow the manufacturer's safety
directives. Do not use chemical solvents or other aggressive cleaning materials.
■
Spilled toner is contaminated.
Re-using spilled toner causes printing problems. Never use spilled toner for printing.
