Remove the toner cover.

Insert the toner cartridge (d) removed in step 6 by aligning its left side 
indentation (e) with the protrusion (h) on the image drum so that the toner 
cartridge and image drum color label align. Then insert the right side gently 
into place.

11

Hold the cartridge, pinch the tip of blue lever (g) of the toner cartridge, and turn 
forward until the tip aligns on the lug of the cartridge.

Check the label color of the new image drum and place the drum into the 
machine.
