Replacing the drum unit A
Important
• While removing the drum unit, handle it
carefully because it may contain toner. If
toner scatters on your hands or clothes,
immediately wipe or wash it off with cold
water.
• Every time you replace the drum unit,
clean the inside of the machine. (See
Advanced User’s Guide: Cleaning the
machine.)

immediately before you put it in the
machine. Exposure to direct sunlight or
room light may damage the drum unit.

HOT SURFACE

internal parts of the machine will be
extremely hot. Wait for the machine to cool
down before you touch the internal parts of
