Precautions when storing toner cartridges
To use toner cartridges in a safe and trouble-free manner, store
them in a place that fulfills the following conditions.
• Do not store toner cartridges in a location exposed to direct
sunlight.
• Do not store toner cartridges in a location subject to high
temperature or humidity or in a location with dramatic changes
in temperature or humidity.
- Storage temperature range: 32 to 95°F (0 to 35°C)
- Storage humidity range: 35 to 85% RH (no condensation)
• Do not store toner cartridges in a place where corrosive gases,
such as ammonia, are generated, or where a considerable
amount of salt is contained in the air, or where there is a lot of
dust.
• Keep toner cartridges out of the reach of small children.
• Keep toner cartridges away from products that may be damaged
by magnetism, such as a floppy disk or disk drive.
Store toner cartridges in the same orientation as when
they are installed in the machine.
Do not store toner cartridges vertically or upside-down.
When removing the toner cartridge which is being used
from the machine
Immediately place the removed toner cartridge into the original
protective bag or wrap it with a thick cloth.
About a new toner cartridge
Do not take a new toner cartridge out of the protective bag until it
is ready to be used.
