5. Maintaining the Machine
DSH218
This chapter describes how to replace supplies and how to clean the machine.
Replacing the Print Cartridge
• Replace the print cartridge if the printed image suddenly becomes pale or blurred.
• Store print cartridges in a cool dark place.
• Actual printable numbers vary depending on image volume and density, number of pages printed
at a time, paper type and size, and environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity.
Toner quality degrades over time.
• For good print quality, the manufacturer recommends that you use genuine toner from the
manufacturer.
• The manufacturer shall not be responsible for any damage or expense that might result from the use
of parts other than genuine parts from the manufacturer with your office products.
1. Open the front cover, and then carefully lower it.
2. Hold the center of the print cartridge and carefully raise it slightly and then pull it out
horizontally.
3. Take the new print cartridge out of the box, and then take it out of the plastic bag.
4. Hold the print cartridge and shake it from side to side five or six times.
Shake the print cartridge horizontally in the direction. The first few printed pages may appear
blurred or smeared if the cartridge has not been shaken properly.

Cautions When Cleaning
Cautions When Cleaning
Clean the machine periodically to maintain high print quality.
Dry wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. If dry wiping is not sufficient, wipe with a soft, damp cloth that has
been wrung out thoroughly. If you still cannot remove the stain or grime, use a neutral detergent, wipe
over the area with a thoroughly-wrung damp cloth, and then dry wipe the area and allow it to dry.
• To avoid deformation, discoloration, or cracking, do not use volatile chemicals, such as benzine
and thinner, or spray insecticide on the machine.
• If there is dust or grime inside the machine, wipe with a clean, dry cloth.
• You must disconnect the plug from the wall outlet at least once a year. Clean away any dust and
grime from the plug and outlet before reconnecting. Accumulated dust and grime pose a fire
hazard.
• Do not allow paper clips, staples, or other small objects to fall inside the machine.

machine to malfunction.
Ventilation
When you use this machine in a confined space without good ventilation for a long time or print
large quantities, you might detect an odd smell.
This might cause the output paper to also have an odd smell.
When you detect an odd smell, regularly ventilate in order to keep the workplace comfortable.
• Set up the machine so that it does not directly ventilate towards people.
• Ventilation should be more than 30 m3/hr/person.
New machine smell
When a machine is new, it might have a unique smell. This smell will subside in about one week.
When you detect an odd smell, sufficiently ventilate and circulate the air in the room.
1. Be sure to check the following points:
• The power switch is turned off.
• The power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet.
• All other cables are unplugged from the machine.
2. Lift the machine using the inset grips on both sides of the machine, and then move it
horizontally to the place where you want to use it.
• To move the machine over a long distance, pack it well and empty all the paper trays. Take care
not to tip or tilt the machine during transit.

Clearing Misfeeds
Clearing Misfeeds
• Jammed paper may be covered in toner. Be careful not to get toner on your hands or clothes.
• Toner on prints made immediately after clearing a paper jam may be insufficiently fused and can
smudge. Make test prints until smudges no longer appear.
• Do not forcefully remove jammed paper, as it may tear. Torn pieces remaining inside the machine
will cause further jams and possibly damage the machine.
• Paper jams can cause pages to be lost. Check your print job for missing pages and reprint any
pages that did not print out.
• The jammed paper may be ejected automatically when opening and then closing the front cover or
when turning the power off and then back on.
Removing Jammed Paper from Tray 1
1. Pull Tray 1 halfway out, and check for jammed paper. If there is jammed paper, remove it
carefully.

8. Appendix
This chapter describes the machine specifications and consumables.
Transmission Using IPsec
For securer communications, this machine supports the IPsec protocol. When applied, IPsec encrypts
data packets at the network layer using shared key encryption. The machine uses encryption key
exchange to create a shared key for both sender and receiver. To achieve even higher security, you can
also renew the shared key on a validity period basis.
• IPsec is not applied to data obtained through DHCP, DNS, or WINS.
• IPsec compatible operating systems are Windows Vista or later, Windows Server 2003 or later,
OS X 10.7 or later, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 or later. However, some setting items are not
supported depending on the operating system. Make sure the IPsec settings you specify are
consistent with the operating system's IPsec settings.
• If you cannot access Web Image Monitor due to IPsec configuration problems, disable IPsec on
the [Network 2] tab under [Printer Configuration] using Smart Organizing Monitor, and then
access Web Image Monitor.
• For details about specifying the IPsec settings using Web Image Monitor, see page 44 "Using Web
Image Monitor".
• For details about enabling and disabling IPsec using Smart Organizing Monitor, see the Smart
Organizing Monitor Help.
Encryption and Authentication by IPsec
IPsec consists of two main functions: the encryption function, which ensures the confidentiality of data,
and the authentication function, which verifies the sender of the data and the data's integrity. This
machine's IPsec function supports two security protocols: the ESP protocol, which enables both of the
IPsec functions at the same time, and the AH protocol, which enables only the authentication function.
ESP Protocol
The ESP protocol provides secure transmission through both encryption and authentication. This
protocol does not provide header authentication.
• For successful encryption, both the sender and receiver must specify the same encryption
algorithm and encryption key. The encryption algorithm and encryption key are specified
automatically.
93
8. Appendix
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are
specified automatically.
AH Protocol
The AH protocol provides secure transmission through authentication of packets only, including
headers.
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are
specified automatically.
AH Protocol + ESP Protocol
When combined, the ESP and AH protocols provide secure transmission through both encryption
and authentication. These protocols provide header authentication.
• For successful encryption, both the sender and receiver must specify the same encryption
algorithm and encryption key. The encryption algorithm and encryption key are specified
automatically.
• For successful authentication, the sender and receiver must specify the same authentication
algorithm and authentication key. The authentication algorithm and authentication key are
specified automatically.
• Some operating systems use the term "Compliance" in place of "Authentication".
Security Association
This machine uses encryption key exchange as the key setting method. With this method, agreements
such as the IPsec algorithm and key must be specified for both sender and receiver. Such agreements
form what is known as an SA (Security Association). IPsec communication is possible only if the
receiver's and sender's SA settings are identical.
The SA settings are auto configured on both parties' machines. However, before the IPsec SA can be
established, the ISAKMP SA (Phase 1) settings must be auto configured. When this is done, the IPsec SA
(Phase 2) settings, which allow actual IPsec transmission, will be auto configured.
Also, for further security, the SA can be periodically auto updated by applying a validity period (time
limit) for its settings. This machine only supports IKEv1 for encryption key exchange.
Multiple settings can be configured in the SA.
Settings 1-10
You can configure ten separate sets of SA details (such as different shared keys and IPsec
algorithms).
IPsec policies are searched through one by one, starting at [No.1].
• After configuring IPsec, you can use "ping" command to check if the connection is established
correctly. Because the response is slow during initial key exchange, it may take some time to
confirm that transmission has been established.
• If you cannot access Web Image Monitor due to IPsec configuration problems, disable IPsec on
the [Network 2] tab under [Printer Configuration] using Smart Organizing Monitor, and then
