Viewing and Resetting the Drum Counters
The drum counters increment when a page is printed. The drum
counter for a particular plane increments (if that color is printed), by
1 for Letter, A4, A5, B5 and envelopes, and by 1.2 for Legal and B4.
It increments by 2 for 11 x 17 and A3. The counters are used to track
printer usage.
The current value of the drum counter may be viewed in the
Diagnostic menus by selecting the Drum Count menu, but this value
is not viewable from the Ready menu.
The following screen illustrates the operator panel when the cyan
drum counter displays. The leftmost digit (‘1’ in this example) blinks,
indicating it is the first digit to be changed. To change the value,
press Menu until the desired value display. Press Select to move to
the next digit. The next digit (‘2’ in this example) blinks. Continue
modifying each digit using this method. To skip a digit (and keep its
current value), press Select.
When Select is pressed after the final digit (5 in this example), the
new page count is stored in NVRAM.
The drum counts can be reset by scrolling to the appropriate drum
color and pressing Select.
