Important Information
For best performance
Toner cartridge and drum unit
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 OFF immediately
after printing. Leave the power 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.
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 nonPanasonic toner cartridge or drum unit:
– Damage to the unit
– Poor print quality
– Improper Operation
