Installing The Photoreceptor Drum
CAUTION
Avoid touching the surface of the drum with your hands. It
reduces the life of the drum. Exposing the drum to light
shortens its life. Do not expose the drum to direct sunlight,
and install it within five minutes under typical room lighting
conditions. When removing the drum from its packaging, do
not touch the surface of the drum. Fingerprints and scratches
can damage the surface and cause poor print quality.
1. Wipe inside the endcaps of the drum with a cloth to ensure that
they are clean.
2. Using both hands, carefully slide the drum onto the drum
auxiliary rod. When the drum reaches the area where the
auxiliary rod connects to the drum shaft, lift the drum very
slightly over the connection. Let the drum rest on the rubber
rollers as you gently guide it into the printer.
