Cleaning
Monthly cleaning is necessary to keep the printer in good condition. This section describes how to clean
each part of the printer.

Never disconnect the printer's power cable(s) from the building's electrical outlet
without first pressing the [Power] key to turn the printer OFF. Doing so can cause
the printer to misread how much ink is still in the cartridges. It may indicate a
cartridge is empty when it is not. If this happens, there is no option but to replace
the cartridge. This can lead to dramatic waste of ink.
•
Do not insert or drop metal or flammable objects into the printer through openings
such as a fresh air inlet. Doing so could lead to an electric shock or fire.
•
If foreign substances or liquids such as water enter the printer, do not use the printer.
It could lead to an electric shock or fire. Immediately press the [Power] key to turn the
printer OFF, disconnect the power cables from the electric outlet, and contact your
local XEROX dealer.
