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-FA87X/KX-FA85X) 
and drum unit (Model No. KX-FA86X)
. See 
page 12 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 82, 86) 
when replacing the toner cartridge and/or drum 
unit.

to the unit or degradation of print quality 
which may occur from the use of a non-
