8 Maintaining the printer The following sections deal with topics for a network administrator in charge of the printer. Periodically, certain tasks need completion to maintain optimum print quality. These tasks are covered in this chapter. If several people are using the printer, designate a key operator to do the setup and maintenance of the printer. Refer printing problems and maintenance tasks to this key operator. In the U.S., contact Lexmark at 1-800-539-6275 for information about Lexmark Authorized Supplies Dealers in your area. In other countries or regions, visit the Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com or contact the place where you bought your printer.
