Cleaning the Drum Unit

We recommend placing the drum unit on a drop cloth or large disposable paper
to avoid spilling and scattering toner.

1

Clean the primary corona wire inside the drum unit by gently sliding the tab
from right to left several times.

2

Return the tab and snap it into the Home position ( ).

Caution

If the tab is not at Home position ( ), printed pages may have vertical stripes.

3

Reinstall the drum unit into the MFC.
(See Replacing the Drum Unit, page 21-21.)

4

Close the front cover.

5

Plug in the power cord first, then the telephone cord.

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The MFC can print up to 6,000 pages using a high yield toner cartridge. When
the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows

TONER LOW

. The MFC is

supplied with a standard toner cartridge that must be replaced after
approximately 3,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your
average document type (i.e., standard letter, detailed graphics).

Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not
sure of them, your local Sanitation Department. Be sure to seal the toner
cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. When
discarding used toner cartridges, keep them separate from domestic garbage.

We recommend that you clean the MFC when you replace the toner cartridge.

Note

It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the

TONER LOW

warning.
