Routine Cleaning

If the original is not copied clearly, clean the following parts of the machine. For high-quality printouts,
we recommend cleaning these parts once or twice a month.
Platen glass
●
Underside of the feeder
●
Feeder scanning area and rollers
●
• When cleaning the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the power cord .
Failure to observe these steps may result in a fire or electrical shock .
• Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet regularly, and clean the area around the base of the
power plug's metal pins and the power outlet with a dry cloth to ensure that all dust and grime is
removed . If the power cord is connected for a long period of time in a damp, dusty, or smoky location,
dust can build up around the power plug and become damp . This may cause a short circuit and result in
a fire .
• When cleaning with a cloth, do not dampen it too much, as this may damage the original or break the
machine.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other solvents for cleaning. Doing so may result in damage to
the plastic parts.

Manual Feeder Cleaning

If originals that have been fed through the feeder have
streaks or appear dirty, clean the feeder's rollers.
It is recommended that you clean the rollers of the
feeder with a cloth which is wrung after being
dampened in water, and then wipe them clean with a
soft, dry cloth.
