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


  • The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating the "hot surface". Otherwise, an injury might occur.

CAUTION


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