When the printer runs out of toner, the control panel display indicates the color of the toner cartridge that needs to be replaced. Make sure you have the correct replacement cartridge, as shown in the table, and then follow these steps.

Avoid touching the toner. If toner gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with cold water. If it gets on your skin or clothes, wash it off with soap and cold water. Keep toner cartridges out of the reach of children.

1 Open the front cover. 2 Check which of the four colors appears in the cartridge

installation window. If you see the color that you need to replace, go to step 4. If you see a different color, go to the next step.

6 Hold the cartridge with the arrow facing up and insert

it as far as possible into the cartridge slot.

rest of the way into the slot. Then close the front cover.

counterclockwise 90 degrees. Then pull it out of the slot and dispose of it carefully.

Make sure you turn the cartridge all the way, or toner may leak.

Photoconductor Unit S051061

The control panel display lets you know when to replace the photoconductor unit. Since the waste toner collector is part of this unit, it is replaced at the same time. Ocassionally, the waste toner collector may need to be replaced separately. See page 3 for instructions.

The photoconductor unit requires careful handling. Avoid exposing the unit to room light any longer than necessary. Also, don’t touch or scratch the surface of the drum.

1 Turn off the printer and open the front cover.

4 Pull the photoconductor unit

out about 12 inches (30 cm).

5 Grab the handle at the top of

the photoconductor unit and gently pull it all the way out.

2 Turn the large lever

counterclockwise 90 degrees.

3 Turn the small lever on the

photoconductor unit to the right.

6 Take a new photoconductor

unit out of its package. Hold the unit by the handle and remove the protective sheet as shown.

Don’t touch or scratch the surface of the drum. Avoid exposing it to room light any longer than necessary.
