How to use

Turn off the printer and disconnect it from the power source before attempting replacement.

Reassemble the panels, reconnect power, and run a test print or paper feed cycle to verify correct installation and feeding performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, inspect related pickup rollers, separation pads, and paper trays at the same time and replace parts showing wear. Use paper within the printer’s specified weight and humidity ranges to minimize feeding problems. Perform replacement in a clean, dry environment and follow all safety and handling instructions from the printer manufacturer.
