Installation (Paper Tray) -1/2
qInstallation of the paper tray itself is straightforward –
it easily slides in from the front. There are a few
points to keep in mind however.
wThere is no tray heater for this model, so humidity can
greatly affect the condition of the paper.
wThe rear of the paper tray extends beyond the back
side of the machine, so there is a possibility of dust
build-up on the top sheet of paper if the machine is
not used frequently.
wThe print side of the paper goes face down in the
paper tray.)
qThe following slide details some routine procedures –
for more details, see the Service Manual and the
Operating Instructions.

qWhen loading the machine with paper, pull the paper
drawer all the way from the machine.

Installation (Toner Cartridge)
qAfter removing the toner cartridge from its bag, tilt
the cartridge to the right and to the left several times
to evenly distribute the toner powder within.
wNote: Do not shake it strongly, turn it over, or turn it on
its end, as this could cause toner to leak out.
qOpen the front door of the machine (see Operating
Instructions).
qHolding the toner cartridge by its handle, insert it in
its slot –pushing it back until it clicks and drops
down slightly.
wNote: When removing the cartridge, the handle needs
to be lifted up at first, as it will not come out of the
machine by pulling straight back.
