Replacing the Laser Print Cartridge
This section describes how to replace the printer Laser
Print Cartridge in both a standard configuration printer
and a printer with a Duplex Module attached.
If your printer does not have a Duplex Module installed,
go to the section “Standard Configuration” (page4-4).
If your printer has the Duplex Module installed, go to the
section “Duplex Configuration” (page 4-7).
• Do not expose the Laser Print Cartridge to direct
sunlight or artificial light for more than 15 minutes.
Overexposure will permanently damage the
photosensitive imaging drum.
• Do not open the drum shutter or touch the green
imaging drum surface.
• Be sure to shake the Laser Print Cartridge as di rected
to distribute the toner inside the cartridge. Print
quality may be degraded if the toner is not evenly
distributed. If the toner has not been properly freed
by shaking the cartridge, you may hear a noise when
powering on the printer, and the Laser Print
Cartridge may be damaged.

Never touch the Fuser area inside the printer (where

a label indicates high temperature).
