REPLACING SUPPLIES AND MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance

To ensure that the machine continues to provide top quality performance,
periodically clean the machine.
Warning
Do not use a flammable spray to clean the machine. If gas from the spray comes
in contact with hot electrical components or the fusing unit inside the machine,
fire or electrical shock may result.
• Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents to clean the
machine. These may degrade or discolour the housing.
• When using the MX-C311/MX-C381,
use a soft cloth to gently wipe off dirt
from the area on the operation panel
with a mirror-like finish (shown at
right). If you use a stiff cloth or rub
hard, the surface may be damaged.
Cleaning the document glass and automatic
document feeder
If the document glass or document backplate sheet becomes dirty, the dirt will
appear as dirty spots, coloured lines, or white lines in the scanned image. Always
keep these parts clean.
Wipe the parts with a clean, soft cloth.
If necessary, moisten the cloth with water or a small amount of neutral detergent.
After wiping with the moistened cloth, wipe the parts dry with a clean dry cloth.
Document glass
When wiping dirt off the machine, do not press down hard on the machine. This
may damage or deform the machine.
