Operation Manual

Cleaning the printer
Over time, particles of toner and paper accumulate inside the printer. This can cause print-
quality problems during printing. Cleaning the printer eliminates or reduces these problems.
Clean the paper path and print-cartridge areas every time that you change the print cartridge
or whenever print-quality problems occur. As much as possible, keep the printer from dust
and debris.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the outside of the printer with a cloth that has been dampened with water.
CAUTION
Do not use ammonia-based cleaners on or around the printer.
Cleaning the paper path and print-cartridge areas
Over time, particles of toner and paper accumulate inside the printer. This can cause print-
quality problems during printing. Cleaning the printer eliminates or reduces these problems.
To clean the inside of the printer
1. Turn the printer off and unplug the power cord.
2. Open the top cover.
3. Remove the print cartridge.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the print cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few
minutes. Be careful not to touch the transfer roller (the black, rubber roller located
underneath the print cartridge). Skin oils on the roller can cause print-quality problems.
