When You See Black Spots Or White Specks - Canon LBP-1000 User Manual

When you see black spots or white specks ...

If black spots or white specks appear on the printed pages, the fixing roller inside the
fixing assembly unit may be dirty.
We recommend that you clean the fixing assembly and clean the transfer guide area
(see pages 118 to 119) with a soft clean cloth, each time you replace the toner cartridge.
Follow the instructions below to clean the fixing assembly using the operation panel
menus.
