Cleaning and Maintenance
Service Maintenance Procedure
Perform the following procedures whenever you check, service, or repair a
printer. Cleaning the printer, as outlined in the following steps, assures proper
operation and reduces the probability of service calls in the future.
The frequency of use, Average Monthly Print Volume (AMPV), media used,
and environment determine how critical cleaning the printer is and how often it
is necessary.
Recommended Tools
■ Toner vacuum cleaner
■ Clean water
■ Clean, dry, lint-free cloth
■ Black light-protective bag
Cleaning
Perform these cleaning steps as indicated by the operating environment.
Never apply alcohol or other chemicals to any parts of the printer. Do not use
aerosol cleaners; they may be explosive and flammable under certain
conditions.
Never use a damp cloth to clean up toner. Be sure to place the Print Cartridge
in a light-protective bag as exposure to light can quickly degrade performance
and result in early failure.
1. Record number of sheets printed.
2. Print several sheets of paper to check for problems or defects.
3. Turn the printer Off and disconnect the power cord.
4. Remove the Print Cartridge, Transfer Roller, Fuser, Duplex Unit (if
present), side covers, and Rear Cover before cleaning each part and the
printer’s interior.
5. Clean the Fans.
6. Ensure that all cover vents are clean and free of obstructions.
7. Remove and clean the paper trays.
8. Clean all rubber rollers with a lint-free cloth slightly dampened with cold
water.
