Printing a machine report
You can print a configuration page to view current printer settings, or to help

(See "Printing a configuration sheet" on page 21.)
Cleaning a machine
If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty
environment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the the most
optimum print quality.
Cleaning the outside of the machine with cleaning materials
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong
substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
If yo
ur machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with
toner, we recommend that you use a cloth or tissue dampened
with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in
the air and might be harmful if inhaled.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the machine cabinet 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
machine.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper dust, toner, and dust particles in the air
can accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality
problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the
machine clears and reduces these problems.
1. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the machine to
cool down.
2. Ope
n the top cover and pull the toner cartridge out. Set it on a clean flat
surface.
To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to
light for more than few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper,
if necessary.
Do n
ot touch the green surface of the drum located in the toner
cartridge or imaging unit. Use the handle on the cartridge to
avoid touching this area.
3. W
ith a dry, lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the
toner cartridge area.
While cleaning the inside of the machine, be careful not to damage
the transfer roller or any other inside parts. Do not use solvents
