The proper cleaning and/or timely replacement of the above
items will insure a long and productive printer life.
CLEANING PROCEDURE
Turn off the power switch and open the printer clamshell case.
Remove the Drum/Collector.
Grasp the two green tabs and lift.
Place the Drum/Collector on sheets of paper. AVOID STROM LIGHT.
Transfer Charger Wire Cleaning
- Use the small cleaning tool
stored inside the printer.
It is located at the front of the
printer to the right of the toner cartridge. Refer to page 5-16
of the GQ-3500 Users Manual for complete transfer charger wire
cleaning instructions.
Reinstall the Drum/Collector unit into the printer after
cleaning the transfer charger wire.
Collector Unit Cleaning - Separate the Print Drum from the
Collector unit. This is accomplished by compressing both of the
green spring loaded clamps on the Collector and lifting, leaving
the Print Drum in the Processing Tray. Cover the Drum with sheets
of paper to avoid excess exposure to light. Inspect the Collector
cleaning blades for excess toner which may clog the opening (the
blades contact the Print Drum when the Drum is attached).
Carefully shake or brush off excess toner into a waste basket. The
cleaning blades are fragile and will render the Collector useless
if damaged.
Inspect the charge corona wire located above the metal
grid. Make sure it is not broken.
