Routine maintenance

Cleaning the machine

Clean the outside and inside of the machine regularly with a dry, lint-free soft cloth. When you replace the toner cartridge or the drum unit, make sure that you clean the inside of the machine.

DO NOT use cleaning materials that contain ammonia, alcohol, any type of spray, or any type of flammable substance to clean the outside or inside of the machine. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical shock.
See To use the product safely in the Safety and Legal booklet for how to clean the machine.

Be careful not to inhale toner.

Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine will damage the surface of the machine.

Cleaning the outside of the machine

1. Turn off the machine's power switch. Unplug the telephone line cord first, disconnect all cables, and then unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet.
2. Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine.
   
3. Wipe the outside of the machine with a dry, lint-free soft cloth to remove dust.
   
4. Remove any paper that is in the paper tray.
5. Wipe the inside and the outside of the paper tray with a dry, lint-free soft cloth to remove dust.
   
6. Re-load the paper and put the paper tray firmly back in the machine.
7. Plug the machine's power cord back into the AC power outlet first, connect all cables, and then plug in the telephone line cord. Turn on the machine's power switch.

Cleaning the scanner

1. Turn off the machine's power switch. Disconnect all cables, and then unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet.
2. Lift the document cover (1). Clean the white plastic surface (2) and scanner glass (3) underneath it with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water.
   
3. (For DCP-7065DN) In the ADF unit, clean the white bar (1) and the glass strip (2) underneath it with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water.
   

Note
In addition to cleaning the scanner glass and glass strip with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with water, run your finger tip over the glass to see if you can feel anything on it. If you feel dirt or debris, clean the glass again concentrating on that area. You may need to repeat the cleaning process three or four times. To test, make a copy after each cleaning.

4. Plug the machine's power cord back into the AC power outlet first, connect all cables, and then plug in the telephone line cord. Turn on the machine's power switch.

Cleaning the corona wire

If you have print quality problems, clean the corona wire as follows:

1. Open the front cover and leave the machine turned on for 10 minutes to cool down.
   

HOT SURFACE
After you have just used the machine, some internal parts of the machine will be extremely hot. When you open the front or back cover (back output tray) of the machine, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustration. If you do this, you may get burned

2. Slowly take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly.
   

We recommend that you place the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly on a clean, flat surface with a sheet of disposable paper or cloth underneath it in case you accidentally spill or scatter toner.

Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, immediately wipe or wash it off with cold water.

To prevent damage to the machine caused by static electricity, DO NOT touch the electrodes shown in the illustration.

3. Clean the corona wire inside the drum unit by gently sliding the green tab from left to right and right to left several times.
   

Note
Be sure to return the tab to the home position ( ) (1). If you do not, printed pages may have a vertical stripe.

4. Put the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly back into the machine. Close the front cover.
   

Cleaning the drum unit

If you have print quality problems, the drum may have foreign material, such as glue from a label stuck on the drum surface. Follow the steps below to solve the problem.

1. Prepare blank A4 or Letter size paper.
2. Make sure the machine is in Ready mode.
3. Open the back cover (face-up output tray).
   
4. Open the manual feed slot cover.
   
5. Press Clear and Menu at the same time. The Drum Cleaning message will appear on the LCD.
6. Using both hands, slide the manual feed paper guides to the width of the paper that you are going to use.
   
7. Using both hands, put one piece of A4 or Letter size paper in the manual feed slot until the top edge of the paper touches the paper feed roller. When you feel the machine pull in the paper, let go. The machine will start the Drum Cleaning process.
   

Note

• The machine makes a mechanical noise during the Drum Cleaning process because the machine rotates the OPC drum in reverse. This noise is not due to a malfunction of the machine.
• DO NOT put more than one sheet of paper in the manual feed slot at any one time, as it may cause a jam.
• If the paper in the manual feed slot is other than A4 or Letter size, the machine will stop the Drum Cleaning process and eject the paper.
• Make sure that the paper is straight and in the proper position in the manual feed slot. If it is not, it may not be fed properly, resulting in a paper jam.
• DO NOT close the back cover (face-up output tray) during the Drum Cleaning process. The machine will stop the Drum Cleaning process and eject the paper. It may cause a jam.
• If the machine receives a print job before you put the sheet of paper in the manual feed slot, the machine will finish the Drum Cleaning process first, and then print the print job.

8. When the machine has finished cleaning, the machine returns to Ready mode.
9. Repeat steps to two more times using a new blank sheet of paper each time. Upon completion please discard the used paper.

If the problem is not solved yet, follow the steps below.

1. Open the front cover and leave the machine turned on for 10 minutes to cool down.
   

HOT SURFACE
After you have just used the machine, some internal parts of the machine will be extremely hot. When you open the front or back cover (back output tray) of the machine, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustration. If you do this, you may get burned.

2. Slowly take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly.
   

We recommend that you put the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly on a clean, flat surface with a sheet of disposable paper or cloth underneath it in case you accidentally spill or scatter toner.

To prevent damage to the machine caused by static electricity, DO NOT touch the electrodes shown in the illustration.

3. Push down the green lock lever and take the toner cartridge out of the drum unit.
   

• To avoid print quality problems, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustrations below.
  
• To prevent damage to the machine from static electricity, DO NOT touch the electrodes shown in the illustration.
  

4. Put the print sample in front of the drum unit, and find the exact position of the poor print.
   
5. Turn the drum unit gear by hand while looking at the surface of the OPC drum (1).
   
6. When you have found the mark on the drum that matches the print sample, wipe the surface of the OPC drum with adry cotton swab until the dust or glue on the surface comes off.
   

DO NOT clean the surface of the photosensitive drum with a sharp object.

7. Put the toner cartridge back into the drum unit until you hear it lock into place. If you put the cartridge in properly, the green lock lever will lift automatically.
