Laser radiation
Fuser unit
Note:
L The left side of the unit (2) and the area near the
recording paper exit (3) also get warm. This is
normal.
For best performance
Toner cartridge and drum cartridge
L When replacing the toner cartridge or drum
cartridge, do not allow dust, water, or liquids to come
in contact with the drum. This may affect print quality.
L For optimal performance, genuine Panasonic toner
cartridges and drum cartridges are recommended.
We cannot be responsible for problems that may be
caused by a non-Panasonic toner cartridge or drum
cartridge:
– Damage to the unit
– Poor print quality
– Improper operation
Toner cartridge
L Do not leave the toner cartridge out of the protection
bag for a long time. It will decrease the toner life.
Drum cartridge
L Read the instructions on page 10 before you begin
installation of the drum cartridge. After you have read
them, open the drum cartridge protection bag. The
drum cartridge contains a photosensitive drum.
Exposing it to light may damage the drum. Once you
have opened the protection bag:
– Do not expose the drum cartridge to light for
more than 45 seconds.
– Do not touch or scratch the green drum surface.
– Do not place the drum cartridge near dust or dirt,
or in a high humidity area.
– Do not expose the drum cartridge to direct
sunlight.
L To extend the life of the drum cartridge, the power
switch should never be turned OFF immediately after
printing. Leave the power turned ON for a minimum
of 30 minutes after printing.
Location
L To avoid malfunction, do not position the unit near
appliances such as TVs or speakers which generate
an intense magnetic field.
Static electricity
L To prevent static electricity damage to the interface
connectors or other electrical components inside the
unit, touch a grounded metal surface before touching
the components.
Environment
L Keep the unit away from electrical noise generating
devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.
L The unit should be kept free from dust, high
temperature and vibration.
L The unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
L Do not place heavy objects on top of the unit. When
you leave the unit unused for a long period of time,
unplug this unit from the power outlet.
L The unit should be kept away from heat sources such
as heaters, kitchen stoves, etc. Damp basements
should also be avoided.
L In the printing process, heat is used to fuse toner
onto the page. As a result, it is normal for the
machine to produce an odour during and shortly after
printing. Be sure to use this unit in an area with
proper ventilation.
L Do not place any objects within 10 cm of the right, left
and back sides of the unit.
