Be careful not to touch the glass housing with bare hands, because skin acids can weaken the glass. The lamp is not a service part. The line voltage to the MFP must be within the following limits: • 100 V ac-127 V ac for the 110 V model MFP • 200 V ac-240 V ac for the 220 V model MFP Turn the MFP off, and wait a few minutes for the fuser lamp to cool.

Note:
Some fax-quality issues might be scanner-related. See

Fuser service check
When toner is partially fused to the paper, it is usually caused by low fuser temperature.
Note:
Improper fusing can result from incorrect media settings in the driver, or on the MFP. Check those settings
before servicing the fuser.
Note:
Make sure the correct voltage fuser is being used on the MFP.
Warning:
Avoid handling the lamp as much as possible, as it is easily broken. Be careful not to touch the glass
housing with bare hands, because skin acids can weaken the glass. The lamp is not a service part.
The line voltage to the MFP must be within the following limits:
100 V ac–127 V ac for the 110 V model MFP
200 V ac–240 V ac for the 220 V model MFP
Turn the MFP off, and wait a few minutes for the fuser lamp to cool. Turn the MFP on, and observe the lamp
turning on during POST.
You can see the light from the lamp by opening the left side cover and observing the upper
opening through which the fuser power cables pass.
