They must be replaced regardless of the presence/absence of external changes or damage, as the performance of the machine will be considerably affected once they fail. If possible, plan any replacement to coincide with a scheduled visit.

    Chapter 12 12.2 Durables and Consumables 12.2.1 Outline 0009-5829 Some parts of the machine may have to be replaced once or more over the period of machine warranty because of wear or damage. Replace them as needed by referring to the table of estimated lives (expressed in terms of the number of prints they make). The intervals indicated may vary depending on the site environment and user habit.
