Using the printer cleaning page If toner specks appear on the front or back side of print jobs, follow the procedure below. From the printer control panel, do the following: 1 Press M ENU until PRINT QUALITY MENU appears. 2 Press I TEM until CREATE CLEANING PAGE appears. 3 Press S ELECT to create the cleaning page. 4 Follow the instructions on the cleaning page to complete the cleaning process.

When toner has been cleaned from the fuser assembly, shiny black spots will appear on the page’s black strip.
If white spots appear on the black strip, create another cleaning page. To ensure good print quality with certain types of paper, use the cleaning page every time the toner cartridge is replaced. If the cleaning page is frequently needed, try a different type of paper. Using the auto-cleaning page The auto-cleaning page feature helps keep the fuser rollers clean, which maintains excellent output quality. The auto-cleaning page feature is accessible through the control panel and is supported through Web JetAdmin, as well. Once set up, the printer runs a cleaning page through the printer as a separate job at the frequency requested with no further user intervention.
The settings can be changed or the feature can be turned off at any time.

If the paper size or types are not available in the printer, a message appears in the control panel display requesting the user to load media into the printer. To override a paper load message, press G O , and then answer the questions on the control panel display.
