Storing Supplies Storing Print Media Use the following guidelines for proper print media storage. These help avoid paper feeding problems and uneven print quality. For best results, store print media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the relative humidity is 40%. Store cartons of print media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor. If you store individual packages of print media out of the original carton, ensure that they rest on a flat surface so the edges do not buckle or curl. Do not place anything on top of the print media packages. Storing the Toner Cartridge Store the toner cartridge in the original packaging until you are ready to install it. Do not store the toner in: Temperatures greater than 40°C (104°F). An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature. Direct sunlight. Dusty places. A car for a long period of time. An environment where corrosive gases are present. An environment with salty air. Replacing Supplies Replacing the Imaging Drum You can determine approximately how full the imaging drum is by printing the printer settings configuration sheet. This helps you decide when you might need to order replacement supplies. To ensure print quality and to avoid damage to the printer, the printer stops operating after the imaging drum has reached a maximum of 30,000 pages. The printer automatically notifies you before the imaging drum reaches this point. While the printer may continue to function properly after the imaging drum has reached its official end -of-life, print quality significantly decreases until the imaging drum stops operating at the maximum of 30,000 pages. NOTICE: When replacing the imaging drum, do not leave it exposed to direct light for an extended period of time.

Firmly shake it side - to -side and front-to -back several times to redistribute the toner, and then reinsert it and continue printing. Repeat this procedure multiple times until print remains faded. When the print remains faded, replace the toner cartridge. NOTICE: Do not leave the new imaging drum kit exposed to direct light for an extended period of time. Extended light exposure can cause print quality problems. NOTICE: Resetting the imaging drums counter without replacing the imaging drum may damage your printer and void your warranty.
