1-6 Introduction and Installationbb

Printer Location

Set up your printer in a location that can support its weight and can provide sufficient

operation and maintenance clearance. To prevent overheating, allow at least 8.0" (200

mm) clearance for the printer’s vent.

Fig. 1.2 Location Guidelines

Toner Cartridge

The printer’s toner cartridge combines the toner and drum. This cartridge can print

approximately 14,000 sheets of letter/A4 size pages at 5% coverage.

Quality and reliability of refilled toner cartridges vary from cartridge to cartridge; XANTÉ

recommends not using them. Printer damage caused by these products is not covered by

your printer warranty.

Handling the Toner Cartridge

Use these guidelines to ensure maximum life and print quality from your toner

cartridge and to prevent cartridge or printer damage:

• Use toner cartridges before their expiration dates. Cartridge shelf life is

approximately 2 years unopened or 6 months opened.

• Never move the printer with the cartridge installed. Toner spills can damage the

printer.

Introduction and Installation 1-9

• Do not expose the cartridge to bright lights or direct sunlight. Keep the

cartridge in its protective bag until installation. If you have to remove the

cartridge temporarily, place it in the original bag or wrap it well to protect it

from light.

• Do not open the drum shutter or touch the drum’s surface. The shutter

protects the photosensitive drum from light.

• Keep the cartridge away from computer hard disks and monitors. It contains a

magnet that can cause data loss or equipment damage.

• Store unopened cartridges right side up on a level surface.

• Always set the cartridge flat with the handles on the top.

• Dispose of the cartridge following safety laws and regulations.

The toner is highly combustible. Never dispose of it by incineration.

Removing and Installing the Toner Cartridge

Check the density dial when you replace a toner cartridge. The dial setting for the

previous cartridge may be too high or too low for the new cartridge. See “Adjusting

Print Density” in chapter 4 for details.

1. Remove all media from the output tray. Then, squeeze the top cover latch to

release the lock (fig. 1.7).

Fig. 1.7 Release Top Cover Latch Fig. 1.8 Open Top Cover and Multipurpose

Feeder

2. Lift the top cover. The multipurpose feeder opens automatically as you open

the top cover (fig. 1.8).

1-10 Introduction and Installationbb

Do not touch any parts inside the printer.

3. Remove the toner cartridge if it is in the printer by grasping its handles and

pulling it slowly out of the printer (fig. 1.9).

Once you begin pulling the cartridge out of the printer, remove it completely. The

cartridge’s shutter may not open properly or be damaged if the cartridge is pulled

partially and then pushed back in the printer.

Fig. 1.9 Remove Toner Cartridge Fig. 1.10 Shake Toner Cartridge

4. Remove the new toner cartridge from the package. Then, gently shake the toner

cartridge several times to distribute toner evenly (fig. 1.10).

Shake the cartridge enough to free any compacted toner. Using the printer with toner

still compacted may damage the cartridge.

5. Place the toner cartridge on a flat surface; then, grasp the sealing tape’s end tab

and pull the tape straight out (fig. 1.11).

If the tape is pulled out at an angle, it may break off inside the cartridge.
