How to use

Power off the printer and allow it to cool if recently used.

Unpack the replacement drum kit, remove protective covers and align it with the guides in the print engine. Insert the unit until it clicks into place, close the access panel and power the printer on. Run a test print or calibration routine as recommended by the manufacturer to verify alignment and print quality.

Usage recommendations

Replace the drum kit when persistent print defects occur or at intervals suggested in the printer maintenance schedule. Store unused units in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong fluorescent light. Handle the drum by its housing to avoid touching the photoconductive surface, and follow local disposal regulations for used imaging components.
