5. Maintaining the Machine

This chapter describes how to replace supplies and how to clean the machine.

Replacing the Print Cartridge

• Replace the print cartridge if the printed image suddenly becomes pale or blurred.
• Store print cartridges in a cool dark place.
• Actual printable numbers vary depending on image volume and density, number of pages printed
at a time, paper type and size, and environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity.
Toner quality degrades over time.
• For good print quality, the manufacturer recommends that you use genuine toner from the
manufacturer.
• The manufacturer shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use
of parts other than genuine parts from the manufacturer with your office products.
1. Open the front cover, and then carefully lower it.
2. Hold the center of the print cartridge and carefully raise it slightly and then pull it out
horizontally.
3. Take the new print cartridge out of the box, and then take it out of the plastic bag.
4. Hold the print cartridge and shake it from side to side five or six times.
Shake the print cartridge horizontally in the direction. The first few printed pages may appear
blurred or smeared if the cartridge has not been shaken properly.
