SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

For best performance

Toner cartridge and drum unit

LWhen 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.

LFor 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

Toner cartridge

LDo not leave the toner cartridge out of the protection bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.

Drum unit

LRead the instructions on page 13 before you begin installation of the drum unit. After you have read them, open the drum unit protection bag. The drum unit contains a photosensitive drum. Exposing it to light may damage the drum. Once you have opened the protection bag:

Do not expose the drum unit to light for more than 5 minutes.

Do not touch or scratch the black drum surface.

Do not place the drum unit near dust or dirt, or in a high humidity area.

– Do not expose the drum unit to direct sunlight.

LTo extend the life of the drum unit, the unit should never be turned OFF immediately after printing. Leave the power turned ON for a minimum of 30 minutes after printing.

Location

LTo avoid malfunction, do not position the unit near appliances such as TVs or speakers which generate an intense magnetic field.

Static electricity

LTo prevent static electricity damage to the interface connectors or other electrical components inside the unit, touch a grounded metal surface before touching the components.

Environment

L Keep the unit away from electrical noise generating devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.

LThe unit should be kept free from dust, high temperature and vibration.

L The unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight. L Do not place heavy objects on top of the unit.

L When you leave the unit unused for a long period of time, unplug this unit from the power outlet.

LThe unit should be kept away from heat 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.

LIn 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.

LDo 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).

1

Routine care

LWipe the outer surface of the unit with a soft cloth. Do not use benzine, thinner, or any abrasive powder.
