Step 5
You can now remove the two pins that
hold the cartridge together. These are
tapered pins pushed in from the outside,
so they must be removed from the inside
of the cartridge. With the drum shutter
held back, use a long punch or bent
extraction tool, and tap, then press, the
tapered pins out from the inside on both
ends of the cartridge.
(See Photo 5 and 6)
The OEM pins can be reused during
re-assembly, or after-market pins which
have a shoulder (allowing them to be
removed from the outside) can be used
instead. Set the toner hopper aside for
now.

Next, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove
the two screws on the left (gear) side of
the toner hopper.
(See Photo 16)
Step 14
Pressing backward on the latch with a
small, flat blade screwdriver remove the
side plate. All the gears will stay attached
to the side cover and can easily be air
cleaned.

Clean or replace the wiper blade and
reinstall it at this time. Clean the PCR
sing a mild soap & water.Re-install the
u
PCR, and then apply padding powder
to a new drum and install it. Be careful
when installing the drum axle that the
inner shoulder fits into the depression
around the hole in the side piece completely (See Photo 9), so as not to pinch
the waste hopper side piece against
the drum gear (See photos #10 “right”,and #11 “wrong”). This can cause binding, gear noise and a possible “error
code 51”. The waste hopper is now finished and can be set aside.
Step 9
Take the toner hopper and place it on the
table with the mag roller side facing you.The
drum cover is attached on the left side by a
wire only, while the right side is attached by
both a wire and the curved, spring-loaded
plastic “drum cover arm”. First, lift the drum
cover arm spring and latch it on the cutout
of the arm.

Step 12
Turn the wire back and upward
until the keyed flat piece of the
wire on the left (gear) side is
vertical and aligned with the
vertical slot on the plastic side
plate, then slide it out .
(See Photo 15)
Do not force it, as it will come
out easily when aligned
correctly. You have now completely removed the drum
cover (it is very easy to re-install
in reverse order). Set it aside
until the end.
