Cleaning the Printer
CClleeaanniinngg tthhee EExxtteerriioorr
Clean the exterior of the printer once a month.
• Wipe the paper tray, output tray, control panel, and other parts with a damp, soft cloth.
• After cleaning, wipe with a dry, soft cloth.
• For stubborn stains, apply a small amount of mild detergent to the cloth and gently wipe the stain
off.
Caution: Do not spray detergent directly on the printer. Liquid detergent could enter the printer
through a gap and cause problems. Never use cleaning agents other than water or mild
detergent.

Clean the interior of the printer regularly to prevent stains inside the printer that can deteriorate print
quality. Clean the printer interior whenever you replace a drum cartridge.
After clearing paper jams or replacing a toner cartridge, inspect inside the printer before closing the
printer covers and doors.
• Remove any remaining pieces of paper or debris. For details, refer to Clearing Paper Jams.
• Remove any dust or stains with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth.
WARNING: Never touch a caution-labeled area in the fuser. You can get burned. If a sheet of
paper is wrapped around the inside of the fuser, do not try to remove it immediately. Power off
the printer immediately and wait 40 minutes for the fuser to cool. Try to remove the paper jam
after the printer has cooled. If the error persists, contact your Xerox representative.
