BEFORE USING THE MACHINE►MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE LASER UNIT
When the laser unit inside the machine becomes dirty, line patterns (coloured lines) may form in the printed image.
Identifying lines (coloured lines) caused by a dirty laser unit
• Coloured lines always appear in the same place. (The lines are never black.)
• Coloured lines appear in
parallel with the direction of paper feeding.
• Coloured lines appear not only on output from a copier but also
on prints from a computer. (The same lines appear on
both copies and print jobs.)
