Caution

• Avoid reaching too far into the printer. The fuser area may be hot.

To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper, if necessary.

Do not touch the green surface underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.

3Thoroughly shake the cartridge 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

Caution

• If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.

4Hold the toner cartridge by the handle and slowly insert the cartridge into the opening in the printer.

Tabs on the sides of the cartridge and corresponding grooves within the printer will guide the cartridge into the correct position until it locks into place completely.

5Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.

Note

• At this stage, if you need to replace the toner cartridge, see page 8.4.
