2.7.6.2 Drum Cartridge Replacement

Whenever removing the Drum Cartridge, the printer
must be turned off.
When the Drum Cartridge is replaced with a new and the printer is on,
the printer generates the following image on the furface of the PPC
drum so that the Cleaning Blade does not rotate in the reverse direction.
Since the image is not transferred (1st), the toner adheres to the
Cleaning Blade. (The toner acts as a lubricant.) This prevents Cleaning
Blade from rotating in reverse.
Image generated when the Drum Cartridge is replaced
The following image is generated several times (the number of
generations has been predefined/Nominal: 5 times) in three colors
(Yellow, Magenta and Cyan).
