Service Cleaning Maintenance Procedure
Cleaning your printer may be necessary if the printer is having print-quality or paper-
feeding problems. Some cleaning procedures, such as purging the jet nozzles are done
automatically when necessary. Other procedures, such as scrubbing the paper-feed
rollers with an alcohol-moistened, lint free wipe, must be done by customers, but only
if the rollers are visibly dirty.
Cleaning may be indicated by any of the following:
■
Light stripes or missing colors appear in prints.
■
Ink smears or random streaks appear on the front or back of prints.
■
Oily spots appear along the tops of prints.
■
Mispicks or multiple picks occur at the media tray.
■
Persistent paper jams inside the printer or at the media tray if the rollers are
visibly dirty.
■
Wiggly vertical stripes caused by too much oil created by a dirty
maintenance kit blade.
■
Most print-quality problems can be corrected by running the cleaning
procedures on the printer's front panel menu.
