Photoconductor Cartridge (page 1 of 2)
First Remove the toner disposal box and toner cartridges.
WARNING : When you install a new photoconductor, the DC
controller board automatically zeros the parameter that tracks photo-
conductor life. Pulling out a new cartridge and reinstalling the old one
may result in an old cartridge being treated as new. If you are consid-
ering swapping photoconductors to isolate a problem, you must first
capture the controller board parameters. For more information, see
“Diagnostic Utility” in Chapter 2.
The photoconductor is light sensitive and subject to damage if special
care is not taken during removal. You must use the protective orange
photoconductor tray when removing the cartridge from the printer.
The photoconductor cartridge is available only through the Photocon-
ductor Replacement Kit (Finished Goods P/N M3761G/A). The
protective tray and two toner disposal boxes are included in this kit.
The tray is also available separately as P/N 922-1580. The toner
disposal box is available separately as P/N 922-1546.
