To check the drum life and quality, please print

for information on the drum life. If printing quality 
is still poor or 
REPLACE DRUM” appears on the 
display, replace the toner cartridge and drum 
unit. To ensure that the unit operates properly, 
we recommend the use of Panasonic toner 
cartridge (Model No. KX-FA85E or KX-FA85X) 
and drum unit (Model No. KX-FA86E or KX-
FA86X).
 See page 10 for accessory information.
To maintain print quality and machine life, we 
recommend you to clean slots and openings 
(page 5) and the inside of the unit (page 90, 93) 
when replacing the toner cartridge and/or drum 
unit.
