Replacing the Fuser

The Fuser is used for fixing toner onto the paper. It should be replaced after approximately 200,000 sheets have been printed. Depending on operating conditions, however, the fuser may need to be replaced before or after that interval is reached. Instructions for replacement of the fuser are as follows:

1. Check the printer’s display to make sure the unit is in the Ready mode.

Switch off the printer’s power switch at the front of the unit and unplug the printer’s AC power supply from its outlet.

Caution: The fusing unit of the printer will be very hot directly after printing. Wait at least 30 minutes to let the fuser cool down before servicing the fuser.

2. Squeeze the latch at the upper left of the rear panel and pull towards you to open the rear cover of the printer.

If you are using a paper cassette extended past the Letter/A4 setting, remove the cassette before opening the rear cover.
