Cleaning the Inside of the Machine (Bottom Plate Cleaning) - MG8120

Solution

 

Remove stains from the inside of the machine. If the inside of the machine becomes dirty, printed paper may get dirty, so we recommend performing cleaning regularly.


You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper*

* Be sure to use a new piece of paper.

  1. Make sure that the power is turned on.

  2. Clean the inside of the machine.

(1) Flick the HOME screen, then tap Setup.

Using the Operation Panel

The setup menu screen will appear.

(2) Tap Maintenance.

The Maintenance screen will appear.

(3) Tap Bottom plate cleaning.

The confirmation screen will appear.

(4) Tap Yes.

(5) Follow the message to remove any paper from the cassette (lower), then tap OK.

(6) Fold a single sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in half widthwise, then unfold the paper.

(7) Fold one side of the opened paper in another half, aligning the edge with the center crease, unfold the paper, then tap OK.

(8) Load only this sheet of paper in the cassette (lower) with the ridges of the creases facing up and the edge of the half with no crease facing to the far side.

(9) Holding sides of the paper output tray, gently open it.

The output tray extension will open automatically when the paper output tray is opened.

(10) Extend the paper output support.

 Important

 If the inner cover is open, close it.

(11) Tap OK.

The paper cleans the inside of the machine as it feeds through the machine.

Check the folded parts of the ejected paper. If it is smudged with ink, perform Bottom Plate Cleaning again.

The screen will return to the Maintenance screen.


If the problem is not resolved after performing cleaning again, the protrusions inside the machine may be stained. Clean them according to instructions.
