Photoconductor kit
The average yield for the contents of the photoconductor kit (the photoconductor cartridge
and the paper dust remover) is 90,000 pages. After approximately 75,000 pages of print-
ing, the message

appears on the printer display. This message indicates
that it is time to replace the items in the photoconductor kit. (Refer to the
User’s Refer-
ence
for instructions on how to replace the items.) The following sections describe these
items.
Photoconductor cartridge
The photoconductor cartridge uses a charge corona wire technology to evenly deposit a
negative dc charge across the surface of the photoconductor drum.
A screw circulates the toner in the cartridge and mixes it with the carrier to produce the
developer. The automatic toner density control sensor recognizes the ratio of the toner to
the carrier in the developer due to changes in the magnetic flux density. When the ratio
