Store this cartridge in the same environment in which the printer will

be used. This should be in controlled temperature and humidity

conditions. The toner cartridge (or imaging unit) should remain in its

original and unopened package until installation – if original

packaging is not available, cover the top opening of the cartridge

with paper and store in a dark cabinet.

Handling instructions

•

Do not touch the surface of the photoconductive drum in the

cartridge.

Opening the cartridge package prior to use dramatically shortens its

useful shelf and operating life. Do not store on the floor. If the Toner

cartridge (or imaging unit) is removed from the printer, follow the

instructions below to store the toner cartridge (or imaging unit)

properly.

•

Do not expose the cartridge to unnecessary vibrations or shock.

Never manually rotate the drum, especially in the reverse

direction; this can cause internal damage and toner spillage.

•

Store the cartridge inside the protective bag from the original

package.

yield) depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. The

actual print yield may vary depending on the print density of the

pages you print on, operating environment, printing interval, media

type and/or media size. For example, if you print a lot of graphics, the

consumption of the toner is higher and you may need to change the

cartridge more often.

If the inside of the machine is dirty or paper has been loaded improperly, there might be a reduction in print quality. See the table below to

clear the problem.

Condition

Suggested Solutions

Light or faded print

• If a vertical white streak or faded area appears on the page, the toner supply is low. Install a new toner cartridge.

• The paper may not meet paper specifications; for example, the paper may be too moist or rough.

• If the entire page is light, the print resolution setting is too low or the toner save mode is on. Adjust the print

resolution and turn the toner save mode off. See the help screen of the printer driver.

• A combination of faded or smeared defects may indicate that the toner cartridge needs cleaning. Clean the

inside of your machine.

• The surface of the LSU part inside the machine may be dirty. Clean the inside of your machine. If these steps do

Suggested Solutions

Vertical repetitive defects If marks repeatedly appear on the printed side of the page at even intervals:

• The imaging unit may be damaged. If you still have the same problem, remove the imaging unit and, install a

new one.

• Parts of the machine may have toner on them. If the defects occur on the back of the page, the problem will

likely correct itself after a few more pages.

• The fusing assembly may be damaged. Contact a service representative.

Background scatter

Background scatter results from bits of toner randomly distributed on the printed page.

• The paper may be too damp. Try printing with a different batch of paper. Do not open packages of paper until

necessary so that the paper does not absorb too much moisture.

• If background scatter occurs on an envelope, change the printing layout to avoid printing over areas that have

overlapping seams on the reverse side. Printing on seams can cause problems.

• If background scatter covers the entire surface area of a printed page, adjust the print resolution through your

software application or in Printing Preferences. Ensure the correct paper type is selected. For example: If

Glossary

ADF

The following glossary helps you get familiar with the

product by understanding the terminologies commonly

used with printing as well as mentioned in this user’s guide.

An Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) is a scanning unit that will

automatically feed an original sheet of paper so that the machine

can scan some amount of the paper at once.

802.11

AppleTalk

802.11 is a set of standards for wireless local area network (WLAN)

communication, developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards

Committee (IEEE 802).

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed by Apple, Inc

for computer networking. It was included in the original Macintosh

(1984) and is now deprecated by Apple in favor of TCP/IP

networking.

802.11b/g/n

BIT Depth

802.11b/g/n can share same hardware and use the 2.4 GHz band.

802.11b supports bandwidth up to 11 Mbps, 802.11n supports

bandwidth up to 150 Mbps. 802.11b/g/n devices may occasionally

suffer interference from microwave ovens, cordless telephones, and

Bluetooth devices.

A computer graphics term describing the number of bits used to

represent the color of a single pixel in a bitmapped image. Higher

color depth gives a broader range of distinct colors. As the number

of bits increases, the number of possible colors becomes

impractically large for a color map. 1-bit color is commonly called as

monochrome or black and white.

Access point

Access Point or Wireless Access Point (AP or WAP) is a device that

connects wireless communication devices together on wireless local

area networks (WLAN), and acts as a central transmitter and receiver

of WLAN radio signals.

BMP

A bitmapped graphics format used internally by the Microsoft

Windows graphics subsystem (GDI), and used commonly as a simple

graphics file format on that platform.

BOOTP

Coverage

Bootstrap Protocol. A network protocol used by a network client to

obtain its IP address automatically. This is usually done in the

bootstrap process of computers or operating systems running on

them. The BOOTP servers assign the IP address from a pool of

addresses to each client. BOOTP enables 'diskless workstation'

computers to obtain an IP address prior to loading any advanced

operating system.

It is the printing term used for a toner usage measurement on

printing. For example, 5% coverage means that an A4 sided paper

has about 5% image or text on it. So, if the paper or original has

complicated images or lots of text on it, the coverage will be higher

and at the same time, a toner usage will be as much as the coverage.

CSV

Comma Separated Values (CSV). A type of file format, CSV is used to

exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it

is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a de facto standard

CCD

Charge Coupled Device (CCD) is a hardware which enables the scan

job. CCD Locking mechanism is also used to hold the CCD module to

prevent any damage when you move the machine.

throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.

DADF

Collation

A Duplex Automatic Document Feeder (DADF) is a scanning unit that

will automatically feed and turn over an original sheet of paper so

that the machine can scan on both sides of the paper.

Collation is a process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When

collation is selected, the device prints an entire set before printing

additional copies.

Default

Control Panel

The value or setting that is in effect when taking a printer out of its

box state, reset, or initialized.

A control panel is a flat, typically vertical, area where control or

monitoring instruments are displayed. They are typically found in

A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client-server

networking protocol. A DHCP server provides configuration

parameters specific to the DHCP client host requesting, generally,

information required by the client host to participate on an IP

network. DHCP also provides a mechanism for allocation of IP

addresses to client hosts.

A dot matrix printer refers to a type of computer printer with a print

head that runs back and forth on the page and prints by impact,

striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like a

typewriter.

Duty cycle is the page quantity which does not affect printer

performance for a month. Generally the printer has the lifespan

limitation such as pages per year. The lifespan means the average

capacity of print-outs, usually within the warranty period. For

example, if the duty cycle is 48,000 pages per month assuming 20

working days, a printer limits 2,400 pages a day.

Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local

area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical

layer, and frame formats and protocols for the media access control

(MAC)/data link layer of the OSI model. Ethernet is mostly

standardized as IEEE 802.3. It has become the most widespread LAN

technology in use during the 1990s to the present.
