Installing the Toner Cartridge

This section describes how to install the toner cartridge in the FAX for the very first time. If you are replacing a used toner cartridge, see p. 12-7.

Before installing the toner cartridge, be sure to read the following:

Use only FX-3 toner cartridges in your FAX.

Keep the toner cartridge away from computer screens, disk drives, and floppy disks. The magnet inside the toner cartridge may harm these items.

Do not store the toner cartridge in direct sunlight.

Avoid locations subject to high temperature, high humidity, or rapid changes in temperature. Store the toner cartridge between 0° and 35°C.

Do not expose the toner cartridge to direct sunlight or bright light for longer than five minutes.

Store the toner cartridge in its protective bag. Do not open the bag until you are ready to install the toner cartridge in the unit.

Save the toner cartridge’s protective bag in case you need to repack and transport the toner cartridge at a later date.

Do not store the toner cartridge in a salty atmosphere or where there are corrosive gases such as from aerosol sprays.

Do not remove the toner cartridge from the FAX unnecessarily.

• Do not open the drum protective shutter on the toner cartridge. Print quality may deteriorate if the drum surface is exposed to light or is damaged.

Hold the toner cartridge as shown so that your hand is not touching the drum protective shutter.

• Never touch the drum protective shutter. When holding the toner cartridge, avoid touching the drum protective shutter with your hands.

• Do not stand the toner cartridge on end, and do not turn it upside down. If toner becomes caked in the toner cartridge, it may prove impossible to free it even by shaking the toner cartridge.

c Do not place the toner cartridge in fire. Toner powder is flammable.
