Cleaning tasks and procedures

To keep your print system in optimal condition and prevent poor image quality, clean the
following machine parts regularly:
• Glass plate
• Scanning area of the automatic document feeder
• Control panel
• Corona assembly wires (via the control panel)
• Automatic document feeder rollers (via the control panel)
• Main unit roller (via the control panel)
• Fixing roller (via the control panel)
• Drums (via the control panel)
You are advised to clean the control panel weekly and the other parts monthly.
The control panel enables access to the wires, rollers and drums. To begin the procedures to
clean machine parts, you need a maintenance for operators password. (See
on page 182)
WARNING
• When you clean the machine, first turn OFF the main power switch, and disconnect the
power cord. Failure to observe these steps can 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 can cause a short circuit and may result in a fire.
IMPORTANT
• Do not dampen the cloth with too much water. This can damage prints or machine parts.
• Do not use alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other solvents to clean machine parts. This can
damage plastic machine parts.
