CLEANING A MACHINE If printing quality problems occur or if you use your machine in a dusty enviroment, you need to clean your machine regularly to keep the best printing condition and use your machine longer. • Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong substances can discolor or distort the cabinet. • If your machine or the surrounding area is contaminated with toner, we recommend you use cloth or tissue dampened with water to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air and might be harmful to you. Cleaning the outside Clean the machine cabinet with a soft, lint-free cloth. Dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water drip onto or into the machine. Printing a cleaning sheet If you are experiencing blurred, or smeared printouts, you can clear the problem by printing a cleaning sheet, provided by your printer.
