Cleaning the Drum Unit

We recommend you place the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of
disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering toner.

1

Carefully turn the drum
unit upside down.

2

Clean the primary corona
wire inside the drum unit
by gently sliding the tab
from right to left several
times.

3

Return the tab to the Home
position (

▼ ) before

reinstalling the drum unit.

Caution

If you do not position the tab at the Home position (

▼ ), printed pages may

have vertical stripes.

4

Re-install the drum unit into the DCP.
(See

Replacing the Drum Unit,

page 13-20.)

5

Close the scanner cover.

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The DCP can print approximately 2,200 pages with one toner cartridge. When
the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows

TONER LOW

. The machine

is supplied with a starter toner cartridge that must be replaced after 1,000 pages.
Actual page count will vary depending on your average document type (i.e.
standard letter, detailed graphics).

It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the

TONER LOW

warning.

Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not
sure of them, call your local Sanitation Department. Be sure to seal the toner
cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. When
discarding used toner cartridges, keep them separate from domestic garbage.

Note

We recommend that you clean the DCP when you replace the toner cartridge.
