Preparing the Printer For a Long Period of Inactivity

Use this procedure to prepare the printer for a long period of inactivity with its power switch turned to off.

Note that not using the following procedure could result in unusual noises when use of this printer is resumed.

Do not switch off the printer during printing.

Turn off the power switch.
Pull out the plug from the socket.
Pull the opening lever on the front cover, and then carefully lower the front cover.
Lower the fusing unit levers with thumb fingers.
