When removing the photoconductor unit, avoid exposing it
to room light any longer than necessary. The unit contains a
light-sensitive drum, which is the green cylinder that can be
seen through the openings to the unit. Exposure to light can
damage the drum, causing dark or light areas to appear on
the printed page and reducing the service life of the drum.
If you need to keep the unit out of the printer for long
periods, cover it with an opaque cloth.
Be sure not to scratch the surface of the drum. When you
remove the photoconductor unit from the printer, always
set the unit on a clean, smooth surface. Also, avoid
touching the drum, since oils from your skin can
permanently damage its surface and may affect print
quality.
To get the best print quality, do not store the
photoconductor unit in an area subject to direct sunlight,
dust, salty air, or corrosive gasses (such as ammonia).
Avoid locations subject to extremes or rapid changes of
heat or humidity. Also, be sure to keep the consumable
components out of the reach of children.
