the drum, causing dark or light areas to appear on the printed page and reducing the service life of
the drum.

skin can permanently damage its surface and affect print quality.

Except as specifically explained in the printer’s documentation, do not attempt to service this
printer yourself.

Do not disconnect the plug while the printer is on.
❏

Unplug this printer from the wall outlet before cleaning.
❏
Use a well-wrung cloth for cleaning and do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
Handling consumable products
❏
Do not burn used consumable products because they might explode and injure someone. Dispose
of them according to local regulations.
❏
Be sure to keep consumable products out of the reach of children.
❏
When handling a toner cartridge, always place it on a clean, smooth surface.
❏
Do not attempt to modify a toner cartridge or take it apart.
❏
Do not touch the toner. Always keep toner away from your eyes. If toner gets on your skin or
clothes, wash it off with soap and water immediately.
❏
If toner is spilled, use a broom and dustpan or a damp cloth with soap and water to clean it up.
Because the fine particles can cause a fire or explosion if they come into contact with a spark, do not
use a vacuum cleaner.
