Recommended Schedule for Replacing
the Image Drum Cartridge
When the image drum cartridge nears the end of its lifespan,
the message [Black image drum near life.] will appear on the
touch panel to notify you that it is time to prepare a new image
drum cartridge. You can continue printing until the message
[Install new Black image drum. Image drum life.] appears, then
printing will stop.
Memo
• After the message [Black image drum near life.] appears,
you can continue to print before the message [Install new
Black image drum. Image drum life.] appears.
• When the toner is almost gone, you may not be able to
resume printing, even by opening and closing the top cover.
Note
• Use new image drum cartridges. Print quality may
deteriorate if more than a year has passed since the
cartridge was opened.
• If toner runs low after the message [Install new Black image
drum. Image drum life.] appears, the same message will
appear again if you continue to print. Depending on your
settings, the toner might run low before the message [Install
new Black image drum. Image drum life.] is displayed.
• If the [ADMIN] > [GENERAL] > [STATUS MESSAGE] >
[SUPPLIES NEAR LIFE MESSAGE] from the USER
FUNCTIONS menu is set to [OFF], the message [Black
image drum near life.] will not appear.
• The print cartridge consists of the toner cartridge and the
image drum.
• Do not expose the toner or the toner
cartridge to fire. The toner might explode
and cause burns.
• Do not store toner cartridge close to a fire.
The toner can ignite and cause fires or
burns.
• Some parts inside the device become hot
and can cause burns. Do not touch areas
labeled "Caution High Temperature".
• Keep toner and toner cartridge out of reach
of children. If children swallow toner, consult
a doctor immediately.
• If toner is accidentally inhaled, gargle with
large amounts of water and get plenty of
fresh air. Consult a doctor if necessary.
• If toner gets on hands or skin, wash it off
with soap and water.
• If toner gets into the eyes, immediately flush
with plenty of water. Consult a doctor if
necessary.
• If toner is swallowed, drink large amounts of
water to dilute the toner. Consult a doctor if
necessary.
• When dealing with paper jams or replacing
toner cartridge, take care not to get toner on
your hands or clothes. If toner gets on hands
or skin, wash it off with soap and water.
• If toner gets on clothes, wash in cold water;
hot water sets the toner into fabric.
• Do not disassemble the toner cartridge.
Toner may disperse and soil hands and
clothes or result in accidental inhalation.
• Place used toner cartridge in a plastic bag to
prevent toner from dispersing.
• If you spill toner, carefully clean it up with a
wet cloth.
