Table 1–4: Printer Components: Internal View

Component

Function

1. Print Density Dial

Has a range of 1–9 to adjust the print density.

Selecting the lower numbers results in heavier or

darker print density. For most printing applications

the dial can be set to 7. See Section 2.11 for additional

information about setting the print density.

2. Cleaning Brush

The (green) cleaning brush has two cleaning surfaces:

The brush end, which is used to clean the discharging

pins on the transfer corona assembly; and the fabric

end, which is used to clean the primary corona wire

in the EP-S cartridge.

See Chapter 7 for more

information about using the cleaning brush.

3. Fixing Assembly

The fixing assembly consists of a heat roller, a

pressure roller, and a roller cleaner. Toner is bonded

to the paper as it passes between the heat and

pressure rollers. The roller cleaner removes excess

toner that may accumulate on the heat roller. The

roller cleaner is replaced each time a new EP-S

cartridge is installed. Each EP-S cartridge comes

with replacement instructions, or you can refer to

Section 7.3 for more information about replacing the

roller cleaner.

4. EP-S Cartridge

The EP-S cartridge contains a photo-sensitive drum,

the primary charge corona wire, a drum cleaning

blade, toner, and a toner application roller. When

the 16 TONER LOW message is displayed, it could

mean that the toner is not being distributed evenly.

Rock the cartridge to redistribute the toner (see

Section 7.3).

If the 16 TONER LOW message

continues to be displayed after you rock the cartridge,

it means the EP-S cartridge has run out of toner and

you should replace it (see Section 7.3).

5. Ozone Filter

Removes ozone generated by the printer. The ozone

filter is replaced every 100,000 pages. The page count

is shown on Test Print A (see Section 2.13). See

Section 7.4 for replacement instructions.

WARNING: Do not operate the printer without the

ozone filter in place. The filter removes ozone that

could be hazardous to your health.
