Replacement

cartridge and the drum 
unit
When the display shows the following, replace 
the toner cartridge.
TONER LOW
TONER EMPTY
To check the drum life and quality, please print 
the printer test list (page 91) and refer to page 94 
for information on the drum life. If printing quality 
is still poor, replace the toner cartridge and drum 
unit. To ensure that the unit operates properly, 
we recommend the use of Panasonic toner 
cartridge (Model No. KX-FA85) and drum unit 
(Model No. KX-FA86). See page 9 for 
accessory information.
To maintain print quality and machine life, we 
recommend you to clean slots and openings 
(page 5) and the inside of the unit (page 86, 90) 
when replacing the toner cartridge and/or drum 
unit.
Caution:
LWe cannot be responsible for any damage 
to the unit or degradation of print quality 
which may occur from the use of a non-
Panasonic toner cartridge and drum unit.
LThe drum unit contains a photosensitive 
drum. Exposing it to light may damage the 
drum.
Once you have opened the protection 
bag:
– Do not expose the drum unit to light for 
more than 5 minutes.
– Do not touch or scratch the black drum 
surface.
– Do not place the drum unit near dust or 
dirt, or in a high humidity area.
– Do not expose the drum unit to direct 
sunlight.
LDo not turn the power switch OFF. Loss of 
fax documents in memory may occur.
LDo not leave the toner cartridge out of the 
protection bag for a long time. It will 
decrease the toner life.
LDo not add toner to the toner cartridge.
1Before opening the protection bag of the new 
toner cartridge, shake it vertically more than 
5 times.
2Remove the new toner cartridge from the 
protection bag.
