5 Locate the transfer belt slots inside the printer, one on each
side.
C AUTION : To prevent damage, do not expose the imaging unit to
light for more than a few minutes. Close the top and left covers
should the insallation need to be halted for any reason.
6 Holding the handle on the transfer belt, align it with the
slots on either side of the inside of your printer.
N OTE : Keep the transfer belt level. Do not turn the transfer belt
over, or loose toner may be spilled.

7 Slide the transfer belt down into the printer and press it
firmly into place.
8 Firmly push the lock levers on each side toward the top
cover, as shown below, to lock the transfer belt into place.
C AUTION : If you leave the left cover open for more than a few
minutes, the imaging unit can be exposed to light. This causes
damage to the imaging unit. Close the left cover should the
installation need to be halted for any reason.

9 After making sure that the left cover is open, close the top
cover. Make sure that it is securely latched.
C AUTION : Do not try to close the left cover with the top cover
open. This may cause damage to the printer.
10 Take the toner cartridges out of their packages.
C AUTION : Do not use sharp objects, such as a knife or scissors,
to open the toner cartridges packages. You could damage the
surface of the toner cartridges.

11 Holding both sides of each of the toner cartridges, gently
roll them from side to side to evenly distribute the toner.
12 Place the toner cartridges on a flat surface, as shown, and
remove the paper covering the toner cartridge by removing
the tape.
N OTE : If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth
and wash it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric.
13 On the right hand side of the toner cartridge slot is a label
that identifies which color cartridge goes into each slot.

14 Holding each toner cartridge with both hands, insert them
into their corresponding positions in the following order:
Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and then Black. Then use the
handle to fully slide the cartridge in.
When the toner cartridges are correctly installed, the yellow
and black cartridges will not be fully inserted. These will
automatically move into place when you close the left cover.
15 Close the left cover. Make sure that it is securely latched.
If you have installed the toner cartridges incorrectly, the left
cover will not close properly. Check again to make sure the
cartridge colors correspond to those marked on the right
hand side. Never force the cover closed.
N OTE : When printing text at 5% coverage, you can expect a toner
cartridge life of about 3,000 pages or 7,000 pages for black and
2,000 pages or 5,000 pages for color. However, the toner cartridge
that is shipped with the printer prints 3,000 pages for black and
white, 2,000 pages for color.

6 Squeeze the paper guide, as shown, and side it to the stack
of paper until it lightly touches the side of the stack. Do not
press the guide too tightly against the edge of the paper as

refer to your printer’s User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.
7 Slide the tray back into the printer.
N OTES :
• Do not push the width guide far enough to cause the material to

Step 5. Connecting a Printer Cable
For Local Printing
To print from your computer in a local environment, you need to
connect your printer to the computer with a Universal Serial Bus
(USB) cable.
N OTE : Connecting the printer to the USB port of the computer
requires a certified USB cable. You will need to buy a USB 2.0
compliant cable that is 3m or less in length.
1 Make sure that both the printer and the computer are
turned off.
2 Plug the USB printer cable into the connector on the back of
the printer.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the USB port on your
computer.
See your computer’s User’s Guide, if you need help.
N OTE : To print using the USB interface, you must run Windows
98/Me/2000/2003/XP. See “Installing Printer Software in Windows”
on page 22.

For Network Printing
You can attach your CLP-510 or CLP-510N printer to a network
using an Ethernet cable (UTP cable with RJ.45 connector).
The CLP-510N has a built-in network interface card. If you are a
CLP-510 user, you need to install an optional network interface card.
If you want to use the printer in both wired and wireless network
environments, you need to install an optional wired/wireless
network interface card. For details about installing the card, see
your printer’s User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.
Using an Ethernet cable
1 Make sure that both the printer and the computer are
turned off.
2 Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet
network port on the printer.
3 Plug the other end of the cable into a network LAN
connection.
For details about installing a network card, see your
printer’s User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

Step 6. Turning the Printer On
1 Plug the power cord into the power receptacle on the back
of the printer.

C AUTIONS :
• Some parts inside of the printer may be hot when power is on, or
after printing. Be careful not to burn yourself when working
