10 Machine Maintenance 10.1 Maintaining the Toner Cartridge Storage To extend the life of toner cartridges, note the following: Only remove the cartridge from its packaging just before its installation. Do not refill printer cartridges. The printer's warranty is voided when refilled cartridges are used. Store the cartridge in an environment similar to where the printer is placed. The cartridge should be stored in the shade.
Toner Save Mode You can enable the Toner Save Mode in the Property Settings of the printer. The life of the cartridge can be extended by selecting this option. The printing cost per page is reduced, but print quality is compromised. Notes • When the toner is low, the LED indicators will light up as follows: Start indicator is off Power indicator flashes red slowly If the printed image turns lighter or blurred, we recommend that you use the VOP software that monitors the amount of toner remaining.
3 Take the new toner cartridge out of box, and then take it out of the plastic bag. 4 Gently shake the cartridge five to six times horizontally to distribute the toner evenly within the cartridge. Important • Should your clothes be stained with toner, wipe with a clean cloth and wash with cold water. Hot water will set the toner into the fabric, making the stain difficult to remove. 5 Insert the cartridge into the printer until it is locked into place. 6 Close the printer cover.
10.3 Cleaning the Printer To ensure the best print quality, clean the printer as instructed below whenever the toner cartridge is replaced or when you notice a decrease in print quality. Do's and Don'ts Clean the machine periodically to maintain high print quality. Wipe the printer surface with a soft dry cloth or a soft damp cloth where necessary. If the printer is still dirty, use a pH neutral detergent to avoid causing deformation, discoloration or damage to the printer.
Cleaning the Inside of the Printer During printing, paper scraps, toner and dust particles may fall into and accumulate inside the printer. As time goes by, the debris may result in poor print quality, such as toner spots, stains and paper jams. Cleaning the inside of the printer can eliminate or reduce such issues. 1.
