Maintenance Messages
CAUTION: If 
you regularly print high density (more than
20 percent page density) graphics, you need to replace the
drum unit more frequently. You must keep track of 
the
number of toner cartridges you 
have 
used, and replace the
drum unit and drum replacement cartridge at 
the same
time you install the eighth toner cartridge. Do not wait for
the CHANGE DRUM 
message to appear 
on the 
control
panel. Overuse of 
the 
drum unit results in a reduction of
print quality and increased 
maintenance 
requirements.
19. There are certain printer components inside the printer you
must clean each time you replace the toner cartridge. See 
the
Routine Printer Cleaning section on page 6-19. (you need to
locate 
some 
isopropyl alcohol for cleaning purposes before
cleaning the printer.)
Note: 
Because it is necessary to turn off your printer before
cleaning it, you may 
want to finish your 
print job as 
soon as
you replace 
the 
toner cartridge and cleaning pad. If so, simply
close 
the 
printer cover and press the 
ON LINE 
button. Be sure
to clean your printer as soon as you have 
finished 
printing.
