About USB memory
USB memory devices are available with a variety of memory capacities 
to give you more room for storing documents, presentations, 
downloaded music and videos, high resolution photographs, or whatever 
other files you want to store or move.
You can do the following on your machine using a USB memory device:
• Scan documents and save them on a USB memory device.
• Print data stored on a USB memory device.
• Restore backup files to the machine’s memory.
• Format the USB memory device.
• Check the available memory space.
Plugging in a USB memory device
The USB memory port on the front of your machine is designed for USB 
V1.1 and USB V2.0 memory devices. Your machine supports USB 
memory devices with FAT16/ FAT32 and sector size 512 Byte. 
Check your USB memory devices’ file system from your dealer.
You must use only an authorized USB memory device with an A plug 
type connector.
Insert a USB memory device into the USB memory port on the front of 
your machine.
Note
There are two USB plug types.
Caution
• Do not remove the USB memory device while the machine is 
in operation, or writing to or reading from USB memory. This 
may damage your machine.
• If your USB memory device has certain features, such as  security settings and password settings, your machine may 
not automatically detect it. For details about these features, 
see the device’s User’s Guide.
Use only a metal/shielded  USB memory device.

Cleaning your machine
To maintain print and scan quality, follow the cleaning procedures below 
each time the toner cartridge is replaced or if print and scan quality 
problems occur.
Cleaning the outside
Clean the cabinet of the machine with a soft lint-free cloth. You can 
dampen the cloth slightly with water, but be careful not to let any water 
drip onto or into the machine.
Cleaning the inside
During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can 
accumulate inside the machine. This buildup can cause print quality 
problems, such as toner specks or smearing. Cleaning the inside of the 
machine clears or reduces these problems.
1 Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for the 
machine to cool down.
2 Open the front cover and pull the imaging unit out of the machine 
using the handle on its bottom .
Caution
• Cleaning the cabinet of the machine with cleaning materials 
containing large amounts of alcohol, solvent, or other strong 
substances can discolor or distort the cabinet.
• If your machine or its around is contaminated with toner, we  recommend you to use cloth or tissue dampened with water 
to clean it. If you use a vacuum cleaner, toner blows in the air 
and might be harmful for you. 
3 Extend the top handle on the imaging unit and then use it to pull the 
imaging unit out of the machine completely.
4 With a dry lint-free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner.
Caution
• To prevent damage to the imaging unit, 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 on the imaging unit with your  hands or any other material. Use the handle on it to avoid 
touching this area.
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the imaging unit.
Note
After cleaning, let the printer to dry completely.

Repeat this action two or three times.
6 Push the imaging unit until it sounds ‘click’ in to the machine.
7 Close the front cover firmly.
8 Plug in the power cord and turn the machine on.
Caution
If the front cover is not completely closed, the machine will not 
operate.
Caution
If there is a cracking sound, re-install the imaging unit. The 
imaging unit is not properly installed.
Cleaning the scan unit
Keeping the scan unit clean helps ensure the best possible copies. We 
suggest that you clean the scan unit at the start of each day and during 
the day, as needed.
1Slightly dampen a soft lint-free cloth or paper towel with water.
2 Open the scanner lid.
3 Wipe the surface of the scanner glass until it is clean and dry.
4 Wipe the underside of the scanner lid and white sheet until it is 
clean and dry.

Maintaining the toner cartridge
Toner cartridge storage
To get the most from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in 
mind:
• Do not remove the toner cartridge from its package until ready for use. 
• Do not refill the toner cartridge. The machine warranty does not cover 
damage caused by using a refilled cartridge.
• Store toner cartridges in the same environment as your machine.
• To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose it to light for  more than a few minutes.
Expected cartridge life
The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print 
jobs require. The actual number may also be different depending on the 
print density of the pages you print on, and the number of pages may be 
affected by operating environment, printing interval, media type, and 
media size. If you print a lot of graphics, you may need to change the 
cartridge more often.
Redistributing toner
When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life:
• White streaks or light printing occurs. 
• The toner related message telling that the toner is low.
• SmartPanel program window appears on the computer telling you 
which color cartridge is low on toner.
•The  Status  LED blinks red. 
If this happens, you can temporarily reestablish print quality by 
redistributing the remaining toner in the cartridge. In some cases, white 
streaks or light printing will still occur even after you have redistributed 
the toner.
1 Open the front cover. 2
Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out.
3 Holding the toner cartridge, thoroughly roll it 5 or 6 times to 
distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
4 Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot 
inside the machine. Insert it back into its slot until it clicks into place.
5 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely closed.Note
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.

10.5   
Replacing the toner cartridge
The machine uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each 
one: yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), and black (K).
When the toner cartridge is completely empty:
•The  Status  LED and the toner-related message on the display 
indicate when each individual toner cartridge should be replaced.
• The machine stops printing. 
At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced. For order 
information for toner cartridges, see page 12.1.
1 Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to 
cool.
2 Open the front cover.
3 Pull the corresponding toner cartridge out.
4 Take a new toner cartridge out of its package.
5 Holding the toner cartridge, thoroughly roll it 5 or 6 times to 
distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.
6 Remove the cartridge cap.
7Grasp the toner cartridge and align it with the corresponding slot 
inside the machine. Insert it into its slot until it clicks into place.
8 Close the front cover. Make sure that the cover is securely latched 
and then turn the machine on.
Note
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.
Caution
If the front cover is not completely closed, the machine will not 
operate.
Note
If the installation is completed properly, a guide report is printed 
out automatically. Wait for about 1.5 minutes for the machine to 
get ready.

10.6   
Replacing the imaging unit
The life of the imaging unit is approximately 20,000 pages for black or 
50,000 image printing whichever comes first. When the life span of the 
imaging unit has expired,  Replace Imaging Unit appears on the display 
of the control panel, indicating the imaging unit needs to be replaced. 
Otherwise your printer stops printing.
To replace the imaging unit:
1 Turn the machine off, then wait a few minutes for the machine to 
cool.
2 Open the front cover. 
3 Remove all of the toner cartridges and waste toner container from 
the machine.
4 Pull the imaging unit out of the machine using the handle on its 
bottom.
5Extend the top handle on the imaging unit and then use it to pull the 
imaging unit out of the machine completely.
6 Take a new imaging unit out of its package. Remove the protective 
devices on both sides of the imaging unit and the paper protecting 
the surface of the imaging unit. 
Caution
• Don’t use sharp objects, such as a knife or scissors, to open 
the imaging unit package. You could damage the surface of 
the imaging unit. 
• Be careful not to scratch the surface of the imaging unit.
• To prevent damage, do not expose the imaging unit to light for  more than a few minutes. Cover it with a piece of paper to 
protect it if necessary.
