Toner cartridge and drum unit

L

For optimal performance, genuine Panasonic

toner cartridges and drum units are

recommended. We cannot be responsible for

problems that may be caused by a non-

Panasonic toner cartridge or drum unit:

–

Damage to the unit

–

Poor print quality

–

Improper operation

L

In the printing process, heat is used to fuse

toner onto the page. As a result, it is normal

for the machine to produce an odor during

and shortly after printing. Be sure to use this

unit in an area with proper ventilation.

L

To extend the life of the drum unit, the unit

should never be turned the power switch OFF

immediately after printing. Leave the power

switch turned ON for a minimum of 30

minutes after printing.

L

Do not cover slots or openings on the unit.

Inspect the air circulation vents regularly and

remove any dust build-up with a vacuum

cleaner (

1

).

L

When replacing the toner cartridge or drum

unit, do not allow dust, water, or liquids to

come in contact with the drum. This may

affect print quality.

Static electricity

L

To prevent static electricity damage to the

interface connectors or other electrical

components inside the unit, touch a

grounded metal surface, such as the metal

part (

2

) before touching the components.

generating devices, such as fluorescent

lamps and motors.

L

The unit should be kept free from dust, high

temperature and vibration.

period of time, unplug this unit from the power

outlet.

L

sources such as heaters, kitchen stoves, etc.

It should not be placed in rooms where the

temperature is less than 10 °C (50 °F) or

greater than 32.5 °C (90.5 °F). Damp

basements should also be avoided.

Recording paper

L

Store unused paper in the original packaging,

in a cool and dry place. Not doing so may

affect print quality.

cloth. Do not use benzine, thinner, or any

abrasive powder.
