Replacing the Drum Unit

Refer to the maintenance guide provided with the new items for the replacement procedure of the drum unit.

Important

  • Exposure to light reduces drum unit performance. Replace the unit as quickly as possible.

  • Do not pull out the drum unit quickly or with force as it may fall.

  • Take care that nothing comes into contact with the top surface of the drum unit.

  • When holding the drum unit, grab the green grip on the left and the handle on the front together. Do not move the drum unit by only grabbing the grip. Doing so may damage the grip.

  • The color drum units (yellow, magenta, and cyan) are supplied as a single item.
