MAINTAINING THE IMAGING UNIT

Expected cartridge life

The useful life of the imaging unit is approximately 80,000 pages. The 
screen displays 

Imaging unit is worn. Replace with new one

 when the life 

of the imaging unit is almost ended. Approximately 6,000 more pages can 
be made after the warning message related to the imaging unit, but you 
should have a replacement imaging unit in stock. Imaging unit yield may be 
affected by the operating environment, optional, printing interval, media type 
and media size.

Imaging unit is worn. Replace with new one

 appears on the display. 

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash 
clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

After replacing the toner cartridge, wait for several minutes without 
powering off until the machine enters to standby mode. Otherwise it 
may cause malfunction of the machine.

To prevent damage to the imaging unit, do not expose it to light for 
more than a few minutes.
