Installing The Photoreceptor Drum

CAUTION
Avoid touching the surface of the drum with your hands. It
reduces the life of the drum. Exposing the drum to light
shortens its life. Do not expose the drum to direct sunlight,
and install it within five minutes under typical room lighting
conditions. When removing the drum from its packaging, do
not touch the surface of the drum. Fingerprints and scratches
can damage the surface and cause poor print quality.
1. Wipe inside the end caps of the drum with a cloth to ensure that
they are clean.
2. Using both hands, slowly slide the drum onto the drum auxiliary
rod. When the drum reaches the area where the auxiliary rod
connects to the drum shaft, lift the drum very gently over the
connection. Then let the drum rest on the rubber rollers as you
gently guide it into the printer.
