7. Cleaning the Printer
This chapter explains how to clean this printer.
Cautions to Take When Cleaning
• Do not remove any covers or screws other than those specified in this manual. Some parts of the
printer are at a high voltage and could give you an electric shock. Also, if the printer has laser
systems, direct (or indirect) reflected eye contact with the laser beam may cause serious eye
damage. When the printer needs to be checked, adjusted, or repaired, contact your service
representative.
• Do not take apart or attempt any modifications to this printer. There is a risk of fire, electric shock,
explosion or loss of sight. If the printer has laser systems, there is a risk of serious eye damage.
• When removing misfed paper, do not touch the fusing unit because it could be very hot.
• Be sure to disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and clean the prongs and the area around the
prongs at least once a year. Allowing dust to build up on the plug constitutes a fire hazard.
Clean the printer periodically to maintain fine printing.
Dry wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. If dry wiping is not enough, wipe with a soft, wet cloth that is wrung
out well. If you still cannot remove the stain or grime, use a neutral detergent, and then wipe over with a
well-wrung wet cloth, dry wipe, and let it dry.
• To avoid deformation, discoloration, or cracking, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzine and
thinner, or spray insecticide on the printer.
• If there is dust or grime inside the printer, wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
