3.
Grasp the maintenance tray by the front handle and lift up while
sliding it out of the printer.
You may notice an accumulation of ink, paper dust and drum
ßuid on the maintenance tray blade of a used maintenance tray.
These deposits are normal and do not affect its operation. Refer to
ÒCleaning the maintenance tray blade (optional)Ó on page 5-49 for
more information.
Note
Once the maintenance tray has been partially used, it leaks drum
ßuid if tipped. Never ship a partially used maintenance tray.
Contact with the waste ink and drum ßuid poses no known health
risk, but can permanently stain clothing. Refer to ÒMSDS for
silicone oilÓ on page 9-6 for more information.
4.
Install a new maintenance tray in the printer.
5.
Close the front cover and wait for the printer to warm-up.
6.
To prevent leaking, seal the used maintenance tray in the plastic
bag from the new (replacement) maintenance tray. Treat the used
maintenance tray as normal ofÞce waste.
Note
When you install a new maintenance tray in the printer, the
printer enters a warm-up cycle lasting approximately 20 minutes.
Noises during the warm-up cycle are normal and not an
indication of problems with the printer.
