Settings and Printing Maintenance Specifications

Periodic cleaning of the printer is recommended. The frequency of cleaning is dependent upon the

environment in which the printer is used. You should clean the printer:

BAt least once a month.

BWhen the printer experiences frequent media jams.

BWhen print quality has deteriorated.

Turn the power OFF.

Clean all the covers with a soft cloth. Use any mild commercial cleaner.

CAUTION

BDo not use benzine, thinner, aerosol cleaners, or any abrasive powder.

When using isopropyl alcohol with a lint-free cloth, make sure that the alcohol is at least 90% pure,

obtainable from your local pharmacy. (Do not use rubbing alcohol; it can damage the printer.)

■Cleaning the paper-pick rollers:

Slide the media tray out (you do not have to remove it) to allow access to the

paper-pick rollers.

When the printer panel indicates that a supply needs to be replaced, make sure that you have

replacement supplies (see below) on hand. The printer may continue to print until the supply is

completely used up; then it stops until you replace the indicated supply.

*1Refer to *1 on page 6 for average life.

*2Specialty media (transparencies, coated paper, etc.) and duplex printing will result in

shortening the life of a consumable to maintain better print quality. When one page is printed

on this type of media, 2 pages are counted. So when only speciality media is used, it may reduce

the life of components by half. When replacing the fuser unit, replace the oil supply roll as well.

Do not insert the used oil supply roll into the new fuser unit; it may damage the new fuser

unit.

*3Using media except the recommended media (see “Specifications”) will result in shortening the life

of consumable.

Note when performing duplex printing:

Duplex printing will result in shortening the life of fuser unit. When one sheet is printed, 2 pages are

counted per one side.
