Replacing supplies
Installing the fuser
The fuser uses heat and pressure to make toner adhere to paper. Install a
new fuser when
Replace Fuser
appears on the printer operator panel dis-
play, or you may experience print quality or paper feeding problems.
NOTE: You’ll need a Phillips screwdriver to replace the fuser.
When you call your Lexmark representative to order a new fuser, you may
be offered the option of paying a reduced price if you agree to return your
old fuser to Lexmark within 30 days. The representative can give you
details on this return program.
After you’ve replaced the fuser, follow the instructions beginning on
page 147 to reset the printer’s internal counter for the fuser. This clears
the
Replace Fuser
message from the printer operator panel display and
ensures the printer alerts you when it is again time to replace the fuser.

Before you begin this procedure, make sure the
printer is not busy processing a print job. Turning the
printer off deletes all held jobs stored in printer
memory. Open the Job Menu to review the held jobs
before continuing.
