Paper Feed Roller Cleaning
With frequent use of coated paper, paper dust from the coated surfaces of such media can accumulate around the paper feed rollers and cause misfeeds and paper jams. Use the Roller Cleaning Plate provided with the printer to periodically clean the paper feed rollers.
To perform this procedure you will need:
- The Roller Cleaning Plate provided with the printer
- Two sheets of plain paper.

If you see water on the front or back surface of the Roller Cleaning Plate, wipe it dry.
