The number of pages that can be printed varies depending on documents.
●
It is possible not to stop printing even when the life is reached. In this case, the message remains
[Ready to print Replace Drum: xx]. For information about setting, refer to ”Drum Life End”
(P.277) of "7.2.2 The System Administrator Menu".
●
If printing is continued after expiration of the drum cartridge life without replacement with a new
one, adverse influence to the machine performance may occur such as the print image quality. So, it
is recommended that you replace drum cartridges.
Example: Message for drum cartridge (K)
Confirm the drum cartridge position ([A1], [A2], [A3], or [A4]) on the Indicator at
the left of the control panel and replace the respective drum cartridge.
●
Do not expose drum cartridges to direct sunlight or strong light from indoor fluorescent lighting.
●
Do not touch or scratch the surface of the drum. Doing so may result in unsatisfactory printing.
●
Return used drum cartridges to our Customer Support Center for disposal.
●
Replace toner cartridges while the machine is on. Otherwise, print data remaining in the printer
and the information stored on the printer memory will be erased.
