Service Preventive Maintenance Procedure

Perform the following procedures whenever you check, service, or repair a printer. Cleaning
the printer, as outlined in the following steps, assures proper operation of the printer and
reduces the probability of having to service the printer in the future.
The frequency of use and the type of paper a customer prints on determines how critical and
how often cleaning the machine is necessary. Record the number of sheets printed.

Cleaning

■ Never apply alcohol to any parts in the printer.
