order to count the number of replacement times. Refer to “2.3 Parts Life Reset Function” in this
chapter.
Also make sure to wipe the dirt on the drum unit as shown in the figure below when replacing

The number of printed pages of the machine can be checked by accessing the machine’s log
information on the LCD. (Refer to “1.4.23 Display of the Machine’s Log Information” (Function
code 80) in Chapter 5.) The actual number of printed page will vary depending on the type of
print job or the paper to being used. The figures indicated as the approximate life in the table
above are worked out when printing a general business document (with 5% print coverage) on
one side of A4-size paper.

- Always turn off the power switch of the machine and unplug the power cord from the power
outlet before replacing the periodical replacement parts.
- If the fuser unit is replaced after errors related to the fuser unit occur, it is necessary to leave
the machine power ON for ten minutes after part replacement. This will make the machine to
be released from errors.
