The Separation Belt
The separation belt is a thin plastic strip that has a plastic
loop on one end and a metal loop on the other. This
belt helps guide paper through your printer. It should be
cleaned occasionally.
E.l
Cleaning the Separation Belt
When a black line appears on the right edge of the printed
page, the separation belt probably needs to be cleaned.
1. Raise the upper half of the printer. Locate the sepa-
ration belt using Figure 5 as a guide.
2. If there is any residue on the belt, clean it with a
cotton swab or soft cloth.
E.2
Replacing the Separation Belt
The separation belt lasts for about 50,000 pages. If the
belt breaks, there is a spare belt located beside the wire
cleaner. You can replace it as follows:
1. Open loop A on the separation belt with a screw-
driver (Figure 5).
2. Remove the old belt by sliding loop A from its hanger
and unhooking loop B from the spring suspender.
3. Hang loop A of the new belt from the right side of
the upper transfer guide. The indentation on the belt
should be on the right.
