Recycling used cartridges

Canon has instituted a worldwide recycling program for toner cartridges called “The Clean Earth Campaign”. This program preserves precious natural resources by utilizing a variety of materials found in the used cartridges that are of no further use, to remanufacture new cartridges which, at the same time, keeps the environment cleaner by reducing landfill waste. Complete details concerning this program are enclosed in each PC Cartridge Box, and mentioned in this manual.

Cartridge Storing Precautions

Store all unused cartridges according to the following guidelines.

•Place the cartridge in the shipping bag so that the side with the written instructions is facing upwards. Then place the cartridge into its shipping box. Store the unused cartridges out of direct sunlight.

•If you do not have the shipping bag and box, be sure to store the cartridge in a dark location. Make sure that the side with the written instructions is always facing upwards.

•Do not stand the cartridge on end or turn it upside down.

•Store the cartridges out of reach of small children.

•Never place the cartridges near heaters or humidifiers, etc. Always store at 104°F or less.

•The recommended storage conditions are as follows:

Temperature	68°F to 77°F
