CLEANING THE LASER UNIT
When the laser unit inside the machine becomes dirty, line patterns (coloured lines) may form in the printed image.
Follow the steps below to clean the laser unit.
Identifying lines (coloured lines) caused by a dirty laser unit
• Coloured lines always appear in the same place. (The lines are never black.)
• The coloured lines are parallel to the direction of paper feeding.
• Coloured lines appear not only on copies but also on print jobs from a computer. (The same lines appear on both copies
and print jobs.)
