About this Chapter

mance of other steps as necessary for day-to-day operation of your printer.
Replacing the EP Cartridge
Cautions on handling the EP cartridge
" Do not expose the cartridge to direct sunlight or other strong light sources.
" Do not carry out the procedure in a brightly lit location, and complete the installation procedure as
quickly as possible (within about 5 minutes).
" When the EP cartridge is removed from the printer, immediately put it back to its original packing or
wrap it with a thick lint-free cloth.
" If the EP cartridge is moved from a cold location to a warm location, let it rest for 1 hour or more
before using it.
" Do not turn the cartridge over and do not stand it on its end.
" Toner is not harmful to the human body, but if some toner has come into contact with your skin, you
can wash it off with warm water and soap. If toner gets on your clothing, you should immediately try
to blow it off with compressed air.
" The drum shutter protects the photosensitive drum from external light. Do not open the drum shutter
by hand.
" Never touch the surface of the photosensitive drum.
Cautions on storing the EP cartridge
" Do not remove the EP cartridge from its packing until use. If it is removed, immediately put it back
into the packing.
" Avoid direct sunlight. Keep the EP cartridge in the following environment:
Temperature: 50º to 95º F (10 to 35º C)
Humidity: 15 to 85% (non-condensation)
