Cleaning for jams and ink smears: paper-feed rollers
Approximate time to complete: 5 minutes
You should clean the upper and lower media feed rollers if any of the
following conditions exist:
■ Media is consistently jamming behind the front cover or at the
manual-feed slot.
■ Ink smear problems persist after you have performed the
“Cleaning for ink smears: internal paper path” procedure.
The media-feed rollers carry the print media from the media tray and
manual-feed slot through the printer. Occasionally, stray ink particles
become attached to the paper-feed rollers creating slick roller surfaces.
When media feed problems or ink smears appear on prints, you can
generally correct the problem by cleaning the media-feed rollers. Refer to
“Using isopropyl alcohol” on page 5-12 for more information.
