Laser radiation
L The printer of this unit utilizes a laser. Use of
controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
Fuser unit
L The fuser unit gets hot. Do not touch it.
L During or immediately after printing, the area
near the recording paper exit (1) also gets
warm. This is normal.
Toner cartridge
L Be careful of the following when you handle
the toner cartridge:
– Do not leave the toner cartridge out of the
protection bag for a long time. It will
decrease the toner life.
– If you ingest any toner, drink several
glasses of water to dilute your stomach
contents, and seek immediate medical
treatment.
– If any toner comes into contact with your
eyes, flush them thoroughly with water,
and seek medical treatment.

and water.
– If you inhale any toner, move to an area
with fresh air and consult local medical
personnel.
Drum unit
L Read the instructions on page 13 before you
begin installation of the drum unit. After you
have read them, open the drum unit
protection bag. The drum unit contains a
photosensitive drum. Exposing it to light may
damage the drum. Once you have opened
the protection bag:
– Do not expose the drum unit to light for
more than 5 minutes.
– Do not touch or scratch the green drum

For best performance
Toner cartridge and drum unit
L For optimal performance, genuine Panasonic
toner cartridges and drum units are
recommended. We cannot be responsible for
problems that may be caused by a non-
Panasonic toner cartridge or drum unit:
– Damage to the unit
– Poor print quality
– Improper operation
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 odor during
and shortly after printing. Be sure to use this
unit in an area with proper ventilation.
L To extend the life of the drum unit, the unit
should never be turned OFF immediately
after printing. Leave the power turned ON for
a minimum of 30 minutes after printing.
L Do not cover slots or openings on the unit.
Inspect the air circulation vents regularly and
remove any dust build-up with a vacuum
cleaner (2).
L When replacing the toner cartridge or drum
unit, do not allow dust, water, or liquids to
come in contact with the drum. This may
affect print quality.
