Cleaning the Printer
To keep your printer working at its best, you should clean it several times a year. Follow these
steps:
1. Turn off the printer, unplug the power cord, and disconnect the printer cable.
2. Remove all paper, then use a soft brush to clean any dust or dirt from the sheet feeder.
3. Clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, damp cloth.
4. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the display and preview monitor. Do not use liquid or
chemical cleaners on these parts.
5. If ink has spilled inside the printer, wipe it off with a soft, damp cloth.
Caution: Be careful not to wipe away lubricating grease inside the printer.
Don’t touch the gears inside the printer.
Never use a hard or abrasive brush, or alcohol or thinner for cleaning; they can
damage the printer components and case.
Don’t get water on the printer components and don’t spray lubricants or oils
inside the printer.
Don’t use any cleaning sheets included with special paper; they may jam inside
the printer.
