Maintenance Storing a Drum Cartridge Be careful of the following points for storing new cartridges or those that were removed for maintenance. IMPORTANT • Do not remove a new drum cartridge from the protective bag until it is ready to be used. • If a drum cartridge has to be removed from the machine for maintenance, place it in the protective bag that it came in or wrap it with a thick cloth immediately. • Do not store a cartridge in a place exposed to direct sunlight. • Do not store a cartridge in a hot or humid place, or a place where the temperature and humidity can change significantly. Storing temperature range: 32 to 95 °F (0 to 35 °C) Storing humidity range: 35 to 85 % RH (no condensation) • Do not store a cartridge in a place that can generate corrosive gases such as ammonia, a place in which a considerable amount of salt is contained in the air, or a place with a lot of dust. • Store the cartridge out of the reach of small children. Condensation Even within the storable humidity range, water drops may develop both inside and on the outside of the cartridge due to the difference in temperature. The development of water drops is called condensation. Condensation will adversely affect the quality of the cartridge. 8 8-32 Replacing the Drum Cartridge

Storing a Drum Cartridge
Be careful of the following points for storing new cartridges or those that were
removed for maintenance.
IMPORTANT
Do not remove a new drum cartridge from the protective bag until it is ready to be used.
If a drum cartridge has to be removed from the machine for maintenance, place it in the
protective bag that it came in or wrap it with a thick cloth immediately.
Do not store a cartridge in a place exposed to direct sunlight.
Do not store a cartridge in a hot or humid place, or a place where the temperature and
humidity can change significantly.
Storing temperature range:
32 to 95
°
F (
0 to 35
°
C)
Storing humidity range: 35 to 85 % RH (no condensation)
Do not store a cartridge in a place that can generate corrosive gases such as ammonia,
a place in which a considerable amount of salt is contained in the air, or a place with a lot
of dust.
Store the cartridge out of the reach of small children.
Condensation
Even within the storable humidity range, water drops may develop both inside and on the
outside of the cartridge due to the difference in temperature. The development of water
drops is called condensation. Condensation will adversely affect the quality of the
cartridge.
