Cleaning the Registration Roller and the Paper Tray

The surrounding registration roller or paper tray might get dirty with paper dust when using paper other than standard paper.

If white spots appear on the printout due to paper dust, wipe the paper tray and registration roller.

CAUTION

  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, you should take care that the power cord will not be damaged under the machine.

  • The inside of this printer becomes very hot. Do not touch parts labelled “” (indicating a hot surface).

  • Do not pull out the paper tray forcefully. If you do, the tray might fall and cause an injury.

  • Do not put your hands inside the printer when the input tray is removed. Some internal parts become hot and are a burn hazard.

Important

  • Do not use chemical cleaner or organic solvent such as thinner or benzine.

  • Do not touch the transfer roller.
