Cleaning the Drum Unit
We recommend you place the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of
disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering toner.
1
Carefully turn the drum
unit upside down.
2
Clean the primary corona
wire inside the drum unit
by gently sliding the tab
from right to left several
times.
3
Return the tab to the Home
position (
▼ ) before
reinstalling the drum unit.
Caution
If you do not position the tab at the Home position (
▼ ), printed pages may
have vertical stripes.
4
Re-install the drum unit into the MFC.
(See
Replacing the Drum Unit, page 20-24.)
5
Close the top cover.
Replacing the Toner Cartridge
The MFC can print approximately 2,200 pages with one toner cartridge. When
the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows
TONER LOW . The MFC is
supplied with a starter toner cartridge that must be replaced after 1,000 pages.
Actual page count will vary depending on your average document type (i.e.
standard letter, detailed graphics).
It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the
TONER LOW warning.
Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not
sure of them, call 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.
Note
We recommend that you clean the MFC when you replace the toner cartridge.
