7.3 Cleaning the Fixing Assembly
Cleaning the fixing assembly removes the excessive toner from the heat
and pressure rollers. You should clean the fixing assembly each time you
replace the EP-L cartridge, and when you notice stray toner or smudges
being fused to the paper. By keeping the fixing assembly clean, you reduce
the chance of paper jamming in that area.
The cleaning procedure uses a special cleaning paper generated by the
printer.
NOTE: Alway use plain white paper to generate the cleaning paper. It can
be A4-size, letter-size, or legal-size paper.
Use the following procedure to clean the fixing assembly.
