OUR

RINTER

Take a new imaging unit out of the package using the
handle.

Remove the paper covering on the imaging unit by
removing the tape under the handle of the imaging unit.

AUTIONS

• Don’t use sharp objects, such as a knife or scissors, to open the

imaging unit package and tape on the protective paper liner. You
could damage the surface of the imaging unit.

• To prevent damage, do not expose the imaging unit to light for

more than a few minutes. Cover it with black paper, if necessary.

• Close the top and left cover should the setup need to be halted

for any reason.

• Do not touch the surface of the green roller on the imaging unit

or print quality problems can occur.

Locate the imaging unit slots inside the printer, one on each
side.
