11. Maintenance tasks
This chapter contains instructions for performing routine
maintenance tasks for the LPS. The activities described here are
essential to maintain system reliability and productivity.
This chapter also contains instructions for using the custom
transfer assist blade.
Precautions you should take
For your own safety and to protect the LPS, follow these
precautions whenever you perform maintenance tasks:
• Use only replacement supplies recommended by Xerox or
Rank Xerox.
• Keep replacement supplies in stock. (Refer to appendix B,
“Supplies.”)
• Handle all system parts carefully when performing
maintenance tasks.
• To prevent spillage, always use a drop cloth when replacing
the dry ink, dry ink waste container, or fuser agent.
Cleaning supplies
The cleaning supplies necessary to complete the cleaning tasks
are described in this chapter, where appropriate. Additional
information can be found in appendix B, “Supplies.”
Maintaining the printer
When supplies for the LPS need to be replaced, for instance,
when the dry ink supply is low, the following indications appear:
• If enabled, the Attention light goes on.
• A message and instructions appear on the printer control
console.
• The Hint icon appears on the PC UI and the printer control
console.
Note: If the Attention light is turned off, the Hint icon does
not appear.
To ensure that the LPS runs efficiently, replace the appropriate
supplies as soon as possible after seeing the indications. If you
do not do so, the printer eventually stops and does not continue
until you replace the supplies.
