For best performance

Toner cartridge and drum cartridge

LWhen replacing the toner cartridge or drum cartridge, do not allow dust, water, or liquids to come

in contact with the drum. This may affect print quality.

LFor optimal performance, genuine Panasonic toner cartridges and drum cartridges are recommended. We cannot be responsible for problems that may be caused by a non-Panasonic toner cartridge or drum cartridge:

–Damage to the unit

–Poor print quality

–Improper operation

Toner cartridge

LDo not leave the toner cartridge out of the protective bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.

Drum cartridge

LRead the instructions on page 11 before you begin installation of the drum cartridge. After you have read

them, open the drum cartridge protective bag. The drum cartridge contains a photosensitive drum. Exposing it to light may damage the drum. Once you have opened the protective bag:

–Do not expose the drum cartridge to light for more than 3 minutes.

–Do not touch or scratch the black drum surface.

–Do not place the drum cartridge near dust or dirt, or in a high humidity area.

–Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct

sunlight.

LTo extend the life of the drum cartridge, the power switch should never be turned OFF immediately after printing. Leave the power turned ON for a minimum of 30 minutes after printing.

Location

LTo avoid malfunction, do not position the unit near appliances such as TVs or speakers which generate an intense magnetic field.

Static electricity

LTo prevent static electricity damage to the interface connectors or other electrical components inside the unit, touch a grounded metal surface before touching the components.

Environment

LKeep the unit away from electrical noise generating devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.

LThe unit should be kept free from dust, high temperature and vibration.

LThe unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight. L Do not place heavy objects on top of the unit. When

you leave the unit unused for a long period of time, unplug this unit from the power outlet.

L The unit should be kept away from heat sources such as heaters, kitchen stoves, etc. Damp basements should also be avoided.

L During the printing process, heat is used to fuse toner onto the page. As a result, it is normal for the machine to produce an odor during and shortly after printing. Be sure to use this unit in an area with proper ventilation.
