special sizes and types of paper) on the unit
before purchasing large quantities.
You can change the settings on following tabs.
Paper: Paper size, paper type, paper source,
etc.
Output: Pages per sheet, output tray, etc.
Quality: Graphics mode, resolution, toner save
feature, etc.
Note:
L To select [Envelope] for paper type on the
[Paper] tab, you need to select [Envelope #10] or [Envelope DL] for paper size.
L You can select the output tray for each
printing on the [Output] tab. To change the
default output tray, see page 55.
L When printing from a computer, the toner
save feature on the [Quality] tab overrides
the unit’s toner save setting (feature #482 on

L Use the multi-purpose input tray to print
transparencies.
L Load transparency sheets one page at a
time for printing, print-side down.
L Printed transparency will be stacked on
the upper output tray.
L Remove each transparency after printing
and place it on a flat surface to cool and to
prevent it from curling.
L Do not re-use transparencies that have
already been fed through the unit. This
includes transparencies that have been fed
through and ejected without being printed on.
L Some types of transparencies have
instructions recommending which side to
print on. If the print quality is poor, try printing
on the other side.
7.4.3 Labels
Use labels designed for laser printing. We
recommend the following:
®

7.4.4 Envelopes
Use envelopes designed for laser printing. We
recommend the following:
– High quality envelopes of 90 g/m
paper,
– Envelopes that have thin, sharply creased
leading edges,
– Envelopes that have diagonal seams, and
– Envelopes with a moisture content of 4% to
6% by weight.

edges will not be bent or damaged.
Do not use envelopes with any of the
following characteristics (using these may
result in paper jams):

Replacement
9.4 Replacing the toner
cartridge and the drum
unit
When the display shows the following, replace
the toner cartridge.
TONER LOW
TONER EMPTY
To check the drum life and quality, please print
the printer test list (page 91) and refer to page 94
for information on the drum life. If printing quality
is still poor, replace the toner cartridge and drum
unit. To ensure that the unit operates properly,
we recommend the use of Panasonic toner
cartridge (Model No. KX-FA85) and drum unit
(Model No. KX-FA86). See page 9 for
accessory information.
To maintain print quality and machine life, we
recommend you to clean slots and openings
(page 5) and the inside of the unit (page 86, 90)
when replacing the toner cartridge and/or drum
unit.
Caution:
L We cannot be responsible for any damage
to the unit or degradation of print quality
which may occur from the use of a nonPanasonic toner cartridge and drum unit.
L 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.
L Do not turn the power switch OFF. Loss of
fax documents in memory may occur.
L Do not leave the toner cartridge out of the
protection bag for a long time. It will
decrease the toner life.
L Do not add toner to the toner cartridge.
1 Before opening the protection bag of the new
toner cartridge, shake it vertically more than
5 times.
2 Remove the new toner cartridge from the
protection bag.

Note for recording paper:
L We recommend that you test paper
(especially special sizes and types of paper)
on the unit before purchasing large
quantities.
L Do not use the following types of paper:
– Paper with a cotton and/or fiber content
that is over 20 %, such as letterhead
paper or paper used for resumes
– Extremely smooth or shiny paper, or
paper that is highly textured
– Coated, damaged or wrinkled paper
– Paper with foreign objects attached, such
as tabs or staples
– Paper which has dust, lint or oil stains
– Paper that will melt, vaporize, discolor,
scorch or emit dangerous fumes near
200 °C (392 °F), such as vellum paper.
These materials may transfer onto the
fusing roller and cause damage.
– Moist paper
– Inkjet paper
L Some paper only accepts print on one side.
Try using the other side of the paper if you are
not happy with the print quality or if
misfeeding occurs.
L For proper paper feeding and best print
quality, we recommend using long-grained
paper.
L Do not use paper of different types or
thickness at the same time. This may cause a
paper jam.
L Avoid double-sided printing.
L Do not use paper printed from this unit for
double-sided printing with other copiers or
printers. This may cause a paper jam.
L To avoid curling, do not open paper packs
until you are ready to use the paper. Store
unused paper in the original packaging, in a
cool and dry location.
Toner life
Toner life depends on the amount of content in a
received, copied or printed document. The
following is the approximate relationship
between image area and toner life for
replacement toner cartridge (Model No. KXFA85). Toner life varies in actual usage.
5 % image area
Approx. 5,000 sheets of letter size paper can be
printed.
10 % image area
Approx. 2,500 sheets of letter size paper can be
printed.
15 % image area
Approx. 1,600 sheets of letter size paper can be
printed.
93
Page 96
10. General Information
Note:
L The image area changes with the depth,
thickness and size of the characters.
L If you turn on the toner save feature, the toner
cartridge will last approx. 40% longer.
Drum life
The drum unit is a consumable item and needs
to be replaced regularly. There are various
factors that determine the actual drum life, such
as temperature, humidity, type of paper and how
much toner you use for the number of sheets per
print job. The estimated drum life is approx.
10,000 sheets. The actual number of sheets your
drum will print may be significantly less than
these estimates. Because many of the factors
that determine the actual drum life cannot be
controlled, we cannot guarantee a minimum
number of sheets that will be printed by your
drum.

...............................(found on the rear of the unit)
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to
the premises wiring and telephone network must
comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant
telephone cord and modular plug is provided with
this product. It is designed to be connected to a
compatible modular jack that is also compliant.
The REN is used to determine the number of
devices that may be connected to a telephone line.
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in
the devices not ringing in response to an incoming
call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs
should not exceed five (5.0).To be certain of the
number of devices that may be connected to a
line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the
local telephone company. For products approved
after July 23,2001,the REN for this product is part
of the product identifier that has the format
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by
## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g.,03 is
a REN of 0.3).
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company will notify you in
advance that temporary discontinuance of service
may be required. But if advance notice isn't
practical, the telephone company will notify the
customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with the
FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its
facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that
could affect the operation of the equipment. If this
happens the telephone company will provide
advance notice in order for you to make necessary
modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

repair or warranty information, please contact a
Factory Servicenter or other Authorized Servicer. If
the equipment is causing harm to the telephone
network, the telephone company may request that
you disconnect the equipment until the problem is
resolved.
Connection to party line service is subject to state
tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission,
public service commission or corporation
commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment
connected to the telephone line, ensure the
installation of this equipment does not disable your
alarm equipment. If you have questions about
what will disable alarm equipment, consult your
telephone company or a qualified installer.
This equipment is hearing aid compatible as
defined by the FCC in 47 CFR Section 68.316.
