Install Toner Cartridges

This section describes the installation procedure for the toner cartridges. If you have already removed all shipping tape and packing materials from the machine as described in the “Unpacking the Machine” instruction sheet, go
to “Connect the LAN Cable,” on p. 8.
1 Open the front cover by using the handle (A).
The toner cartridges are installed in order of black, yellow, cyan, and magenta.
2 Place two sheets (B) of LTR paper on the transfer
belt of the delivery feeder unit (A) and make sure that they do not move out of place.
4
2 Set Up the Machine
When installing or removing the toner cartridges, be sure
to place the papers on the transfer belt of the delivery feeder unit to protect the belt. Do not touch or place objects on the transfer belt (A) of
the delivery feeder unit. The transfer belt comes with a self cleaning function so do not wipe the transfer belt even when toner can be seen attached to the belt. If the delivery feeder unit is broken or the transfer belt is damaged, this may result in misfeeds or deterioration in print quality.
Do not open the drum protective shutter (A).
Do not touch the high-voltage contact (A) or the electrical contacts (B), as this may result in damage to the printer.
3 Hold the blue tabs on the both sides of toner
cartridge, and pull it horizontally.
4 Gently rock the toner cartridge 5 or 6 times to
evenly distribute the toner inside.
If toner is not distributed evenly, this may result in deterioration in print quality. Make sure to carry out this procedure properly.

2 Set Up the Machine
5 Place the toner cartridge on a at surface, fold
back the tab of the sealing tape (A) located at left side of the toner cartridge.
6 Remove the sealing tape (approx. 18 7/8 inch
long) gently by hooking your nger into the tab and pulling it out straight in the direction of the arrow.
8 Hold the toner cartridge properly by the blue
tabs on the both sides with the arrowed side facing up.
Do not hold the toner cartridge in a manner that is not described in this procedure.
If the sealing tape is pulled out forcefully or stopped at
midpoint, toner may spill out. If the toner gets into your eyes or mouth, wash them immediately with cold water and immediately consult a physician. If toner is adhered to the removed seal, be careful not to
dirty your hands or clothing by touching it. If your hands or clothes get dirty from touching the toner,
wash them immediately in cold water. Do not use hot water. Doing so may cause the toner to set permanently.
7 Hook your nger into the tab and remove the
packing material (A) located at right side of the toner cartridge.
9 Align the guides (A) of the toner cartridge that
you want to replace with the slots (B) to which the label of the same color is attached, then insert the cartridge until it stops.
6
10 After removing all the packing materials from
each toner cartridge and installing the cartridges, remove the papers on the transfer belt of the delivery feeder unit.
When removing the paper, be careful not to touch or damage the transfer belt of the delivery feeder unit.
