❏The photoconductor unit weighs 1.3 kg (2.9 lb). Be sure to hold it firmly by the handle when carrying it.

❏When replacing the photoconductor unit, avoid exposing it to room light any longer than three minutes.

❏Be careful not to scratch the surface of the drum. Also, avoid touching the drum, since oil from your skin may permanently damage its surface and affect print quality.
