REGULAR MAINTENANCE

To ensure that the machine continues to provide top quality performance, periodically clean the machine.

Warning

Do not use a flammable spray to clean the machine. If gas from the spray comes in contact with hot electrical components or the fusing unit inside the machine, fire or electrical shock may result.

Caution

  • Do not use thinner, benzene, or similar volatile cleaning agents to clean the machine. These may degrade or discolor the housing.
  • Use a soft cloth to gently wipe off dirt from the area on the operation panel with a mirror-like finish (shown at right). If you use a stiff cloth or rub hard, the surface may be damaged.

CLEANING THE BYPASS FEED ROLLER

If paper misfeeds frequently occur when feeding envelopes or heavy paper through the bypass tray, wipe the surface of the feed roller with a clean soft cloth moistened with water or a neutral detergent.

CLEANING THE FEED ROLLER OF TRAY 1

If the paper in tray 1 frequently misfeeds, press down the center of the pressure plate until it locks, and wipe the surface of the feed roller with a clean, soft cloth moistened with water.

Pull out the paper tray 1.

Hold the tray with both hands and slowly pull out and up at a slight angle.
The feed roller cannot be removed unless tray 1 is removed.

Clean the feed roller.
