Toner cartridge and drum cartridge
RWhen 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.
RFor 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
RDo not leave the toner cartridge out of the protective
bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.
Drum cartridge
RRead the instructions on page 10 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 5 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.
RTo 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
RTo avoid malfunction, do not position the unit near
appliances such as TVs or speakers which generate
an intense magnetic field.
Static electricity
RTo prevent static electricity damage to the interface
connectors or other electrical components inside the
unit, touch a grounded metal surface before touching
the components.

devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.
RThe unit should be kept free from dust, high
temperature and vibration.
RThe unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
RDo not place heavy objects on top of the unit. When
