Maintaining Your Copier

Once you have a copier for your business it is crucial to keep it in working condition. While most copiers go through their entire lease with little problems, it is always important to figure out if there are issues before things become worse. Maintaining your copier can usually be done very easily and can save you a lot of hassle later.

Once you get your copier it is important to look through your user manual. This will be the best location for all the simple answers to your copier. If you suspect that something funky may be going on, then this is the best place to start. Do not open the copier and start poking around. While you may be well intentioned, this is an easy way to make a problem worse.

If you encounter problems, try and figure out what you think is going wrong. One of the most common problems is a simple paper jam that can be fixed without the help of a technician. Removing a paper jam from the machine is an easy task as long as you are careful. Simply remove the jammed paper very carefully to make sure you don’t disrupt any other parts in the copier.

You also may experience hearing weird noises. Your copier should not be making grinding or screeching sounds. If this does begin to be the case then it may be time to call a technician. While the machine may seem to work just fine despite the sounds, not fixing the problem can lead to bigger problems later on.
