working condition.
Use only water or mild detergent on exterior surfaces. Do not
use cleaning alcohol or other volatile substances that may
discolor, crack or deform the printer casing.
Be sure to power OFF the printer and disconnect the power
cord before cleaning the interior of the printer.
The Fuser area becomes very hot in operation. It is best to
wait at least 15 minutes for the printer to cool off before
attempting to clean the interior of the printer.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior of the printer about once a month, using a
soft, slightly damp cloth (see Figure B.2 below). For stubborn
stains, soak the cloth in a mild detergent solution before
cleaning. Always finish by wiping the printer again with a
soft, dry cloth.
