Page 12: Paper Recommendations
APER RECOMMENDATIONS Your printer will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and sizes and envelopes. This section provides general advice on choice of media, and explains how to use each type. The best performance will be obtained when using standard 75~90g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers. -
Page 13: Multi Purpose Tray
ULTI PURPOSE TRAY The multi purpose tray can handle the same sizes as the cassette tray, but in weights from 75 to 203g/m². For very heavy paper stock use the face up (rear) paper stacker. This ensures that the paper path through the printer is almost straight. The multi purpose tray can feed paper widths as small as 100mm and lengths up to 1220mm (banner printing). -

Page 36: Replacing Consumable Items
EPLACING CONSUMABLE ITEMS This section explains how to replace consumable items when due. As a guide, the life expectancy of these items is: ONER TARTER ARTRIDGES The machine is shipped with sufficient Black, Cyan, Magenta & Yellow toner for 1,000 A4 pages, of which 500 A4 pages of toner are used to initially charge the image drum (500 A4 pages remaining at 5% coverage). -

If this is not enough, use a cool, damp cloth to remove any residue. Do not use hot water, and never use solvents of any kind. They will make stains permanent.
- Page 39 Remove the new cartridge from its box but leave its wrapping material in place for the moment. Gently shake the new cartridge from end to end several times to loosen and distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge. Remove the wrapping material and peel off the adhesive tape from the underside of the cartridge.
- Page 40 Press gently down on the cartridge to ensure that it is firmly seated, push the coloured lever (1) towards the rear of the printer. This will lock the cartridge into place and release toner into the image drum unit. Finally, close the top cover and press down firmly at both sides so that the cover latches.
-
Page 41: Image Drum Replacement
MAGE DRUM REPLACEMENT CAUTION! Static sensitive devices, handle with care. The printer contains four image drums: cyan, magenta, yellow and black. Press the cover release and open the printer’s top cover fully. WARNING! If the printer has been powered on, the fuser will be hot. This area is clearly labelled. - Page 42 Put the assembly down gently on to a piece of paper to avoid damaging the green drum surface. CAUTION! The green image drum surface at the base of the cartridge is very delicate and light sensitive. Do not touch it and do not expose it to normal room light for more than 5 minutes.
- Page 43 Place the toner cartridge onto the new image drum cartridge as shown. Push the left end in first, and then lower the right end in. (It is not necessary to fit a new toner cartridge at this time unless the remaining toner level is very low.) Push the coloured release lever (1) away from you to lock the toner cartridge onto the new image drum unit and release toner into it.
-
Page 44: Replacing The Belt Unit
EPLACING THE BELT UNIT The belt unit is located under the four image drums. This unit requires replacement approximately every 60,000 pages. Switch off the printer and allow the fuser to cool for about 10 minutes before opening the cover. Press the cover release and open the printer’s top cover fully. - Page 45 Locate the two fasteners (1) at each side of the belt and the lifting bar (2) at the front end. Turn the two fasteners 90° to the left. This will release the belt from the printer chassis. Pull the lifting bar (2) upwards so that belt tilts up towards the front, and withdraw the belt unit from the printer.
-
Page 46: Fuser Replacement
USER REPLACEMENT The fuser is located inside the printer just behind the four image drum units. WARNING! If the printer has recently been powered on, some fuser components will be very hot. Handle the fuser with extreme care, holding it only by its handle, which will only be mildly warm to the touch. -
Page 47: Cleaning The Led Head
LEANING THE HEAD Clean the LED head when printing does not come out clearly, has white lines or when text is blurred. Switch off the printer and open the top cover. Gently wipe the LED head surface with LED lens cleaner or soft tissue. CAUTION! Do not use methyl alcohol or other solvents on the LED head as damage to the lens surface will occur. -
Page 48: Troubleshooting
ROUBLESHOOTING LEARING PAPER JAMS Provided that you follow the recommendations in this guide on use of print media, and you keep the media in good condition prior to use, your printer should give years of reliable service. However, paper jams occasionally do occur, and this section explains how to clear them quickly and simply. - Page 49 Note the positions of the 4 cartridges. 1. Cyan cartridge 2. Magenta cartridge 3. Yellow cartridge 4. Black cartridge It will be necessary to remove the four image drums to gain access to the paper path. Holding it by its top centre, lift the cyan image drum, complete with its toner cartridge, up and out of the printer.
- Page 50 Repeat this removal procedure for each of the remaining image drum units. Cover the image drum units to protect them from direct light. Look into the printer to check whether any sheets of paper are visible on any part of the belt unit.
- Page 51 > To remove a sheet just entering the fuser , separate the trailing edge of the sheet from the belt, push the fuser pressure release lever (1) towards the front and down to release the fuser’s grip on the sheet, and withdraw the sheet through the drum cavity area.
- Page 52 Open the rear stacker and check for a sheet of paper in the rear path area. > Pull out any sheets found in this area. > If the sheet is low down in this area and difficult to remove, it is probably still gripped by the fuser.
- Page 53 Check inside the cover for sheets in this area and remove any that you find, then close the cover. Pull out the Cassette Tray and ensure that all paper is stacked properly, is undamaged, and that the paper guides are properly positioned against the edges of the paper stack.

Page 54: Installing Additional Memory
NSTALLING ADDITIONAL MEMORY This section explains how to install additional RAM memory into your printer as a memory upgrade. RDER CODES Use the following order codes for additional memory: > 256MB RAM – 01182901 > 512MB RAM – 01182902 EMORY UPGRADE The basic printer model comes equipped with 128MB of main memory. - Page 55 Locate the two fasteners (1) at each side of the belt (3) and the lifting bar (2) at the front end. Unlock the fasteners and remove the belt as shown. Carefully remove the new memory board from its wrapping. Try to handle the board only by its short edges, avoiding contact with any metal parts as far as possible.
- Page 56 Identify the RAM expansion slot in the printer. Unclip the plastic cover to open this slot. If the RAM expansion slot already contains a memory upgrade board, that board will have to be removed before you can install the new one. To remove it proceed as follows, otherwise skip to step 10.
- Page 57 When the printer is ready, print a menu map (see “Information menu” on page 21). Examine the first page of the menu map. Near the top of the page, between the two horizontal lines, you will see the current printer configuration. This list contains the figure for total memory size. This should indicate the total memory now installed, which should be the size of memory board you have installed plus 128MB.
