When to replace the photo conductor unit
Replace the photo conductor unit if any of the following messages appear on the display:
"Replace PCU:Black."
Replace the black photo conductor unit.
"Replace PCU:Colour."

Do not pull out the photo conductor unit quickly or with force as it may fall.
Take care that nothing comes into contact with the top surface of the photo conductor unit.
When holding the photo conductor unit, grab the green grip on the left and the handle on the front together. Do not move the photo conductor unit by only grabbing the grip. Doing so may damage the grip.
