Replacing The Photoreceptor Drum
Drum life depends upon the media used and proper maintenance
and operation of the printer. Print media other than bond paper
(e.g., labels, card stock, plastic, or vinyl) can reduce drum life as
much as 50%.
To replace the drum, you need a drum auxiliary rod. Please read all
steps before doing this procedure.
Removal
CAUTION
Do not replace the photoreceptor drum unless you have been
trained to do so. You cannot do this procedure without the
drum auxiliary rod (P/N 703531-170), as you may damage the
drum.
