6. 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (FR-8)
7. Clean compressed air
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles and breathing mask when working with or around toner. Do not disperse the
toner into the air. Use approved toner vacuums and filters at all times.
Approved Vacuum systems:
Toner approved vacuum. The Atrix HCTV canister type toner vac, OR the Atrix AAA portable style vacuum. Some type of
approved toner vacuuming system is important because toner consists of very fine particles that will pass right through a
normal vacuum filter, and blow out the exhaust.

1. Before proceeding with the following procedure you should have a work area available with approximately 4’ x 3’ clear
space. It should be covered with some disposable paper since toner will spill on this area. It is recommended that
brown craft paper be used and taped to the work area. This will hold the paper in place when trying to vacuum toner
from the paper.
2. A garbage can with a strong plastic liner should be adjacent to the work area to empty used toner. It should be at least
2’ deep to prevent toner from clouding up and over the top of the bag during disposal.
3. Have a few rags available and some disposable paper towels. TM-1 Toner Magnets are perfect for this.
4. The work area should be capable of being ventilated, if by accident toner becomes dispersed into the air. An exhaust
fan in one window is recommended for ventilation.
If the circulation of air in the work area room is combined with other rooms in the building, toner dust may be carried
into the other rooms. A separate and isolated HVAC system is recommended for the work area room.

1. Take the drum section and turn it so that the counter side is facing you.
2. Remove the 2 screws on the drum axle pin, and the drum axle pin.
3. Carefully remove the OPC drum, being very careful not to scratch it. Vacuum any remaining toner and debris from the
drum, being very careful not to come into contact with the drum surface. Do not polish or wipe the drum with a dry cloth,
since this may scratch the drum. Blow off any remaining dust using a can of compressed clean air. Never use un-
filtered compressed air for this as un-filtered air will have small dirt particles which blown at high speeds, will damage
the drum.
CAUTION:
When using the Compressed clean air, be very careful not to tilt or shake the can while spraying, as the
propellant may spray out of the can and possibly ruin the drum.
4. Place the OPC Drum in a soft lint free cloth and then into a dark colored bag, or cover from bright light by some other
suitable means. Again, do not rub or wipe the OPC Drum with a dry cloth as this may scratch its surface. If there is any
matter left on the drum that must be cleaned off, use 99% pure Isopropyl Alcohol (FR-8), and a soft lint free cotton pad
(PW-96) to lightly wipe the drum surface. Vacuum and then blow off the Drum using the Compressed Air. Always
handle the OPC drum with the utmost caution, since if damaged it cannot be replaced.
