Do you know what you need to know before attempting to clean the laser copier or printer in your office? Here are a few tips to complete the job safely and effectively.As with any electrical machine, you should always unplug the machine from power before you start. Always make sure to use the proper vacuum when cleaning any toner from a machine.
A regular vacuum's filter is not able to capture particles as fine as toner, which means the toner will be floating around in the air. Toner dust can cause respiratory tract irritation when it gets inside your lungs. Always use a toner vacuum such as the Metro Datavac Pro Series toner vacuum that comes with micro cleaning tools.
Always wear a mask to reduce the possibility of inhaling the toner dust when you are cleaning your printer.
Try and make sure you turn off your printer at least one hour before cleaning to reduce any possibility of getting burned by the fuser roller which becomes extremely hot when printing.
