1. Points to Note When Handling the Photosensitive Drum
The copier's photosensitive drum is a high-sensitivity amorphous silicon drum, and its sensitiv-
ity can deteriorate if it or the process unit is not placed or stored properly. Be sure to keep the
following in mind when handling the photosensitive drum or the process unit:
1. If you have removed the process unit from the copier, keep the photosensitive drum away from
light. To do so, use the photosensitive drum protective sheet or wrap it in six or more sheets of
A3 copy paper.
2. Do not place the process unit or the photosensitive drum near a window, i.e., do not subject it to
direct sunshine.
3. Do not place the process unit or the photosensitive drum in places subjected to high tempera-
ture, high humidity, low temperature, or low humidity or areas subject to rapid changes in
temperature or humidity.
4. Do not place the process unit or the photosensitive drum in places subject to dust, ammonium
gas, or organic solvent gas.
The foregoing points apply to the photosensitive drum of all models.
