Cleaning the Machine Interior
Clean the interior of the machine regularly so that toner/paper dust does not collect.
1
Turn off the machine and unplug it from the power outlet.
Turning the printer OFF erases any queued print data. Data such as documents received and held in memory, documents waiting to be sent, and reports that are automatically printed after sending or receiving faxes are not deleted.

Lift the operation panel.
If you cannot lift the operation panel
Make sure the feeder is completely closed. If a thick original such as a book is placed on the platen glass, remove the original. Forcing the operation panel up may cause damage.
