R For optimal performance, genuine Panasonic toner

cartridges and drum cartridges are recommended. We cannot be responsible for problems that may be caused by a non-Panasonic toner cartridge or drum cartridge: – Damage to the unit

– Poor print quality – Improper operation

Toner cartridge

R Do not leave the toner cartridge out of the protective

bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.

Drum cartridge

R Read the instructions on page 11 before you begin

installation of the drum cartridge. After you have read them, open the drum cartridge protective bag. The drum cartridge contains a photosensitive drum. Exposing it to light may damage the drum. Once you have opened the protective bag: – Do not expose the drum cartridge to light for more

than 5 minutes. – Do not touch or scratch the black drum surface. – Do not place the drum cartridge near dust or dirt,

or in a high humidity area. – Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct
