CAUTION!

 

The green surface at the base of each image drum is very delicate and light sensitive.

 

 

Do not touch the green surface.

  

 

Never expose the drum to direct sunlight or to very bright room lighting.

  

 

Do not expose it to normal room light for more than 5 minutes.

  

 

If the image drum must be out of the printer for longer than 5 minutes, place the image 
drum inside a black plastic bag or carefully place it in a drawer or cabinet to keep it away 
from light.
