Precautions before setting up
The printing unit in the fax generates a small amount of ozone during operation. The
amount is not large enough to be harmful; however, the fax should only be installed
in a well-ventilated room.
The fax must be installed on a level surface.
Keep the fax away from air conditioners, heaters, direct sunlight, and dust.
Provide easy access to the front, back, and sides of the fax. In particular, keep the
area in front of the fax clear, or the original document may jam as it comes out after
scanning.
Keep liquids away from the fax. Liquids spilled on the fax can damage the internal
circuitry.
If the fax is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may
form on the reading glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for
transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait
approximately 2 hours before using the fax.

The laser printer in your fax creates printed text and images by applying toner to the
page with a photoconductive drum. Follow the steps below to install or replace the
imaging cartridge (which contains the toner) and the drum cartridge.
Pull the release on the right side of
the operation panel forward, and open
the operation panel.
Grasp the top of the received
document guide and pull it so that it
rotates toward you. Lift the guide
straight up and out of the printing
compartment.
l If you are installing the cartridges for
the first time, go to Step 5.
3 If you are replacing the cartridges,
grasp the finger hold on the imaging
cartridge handle (marked “PUSH”)
and pull the handle out. Rehold the
handle, and pull the imaging cartridge
out of the compartment.
Caution! The fusing unit (the black unit
with ribs extending across the bottom
of the compartment) becomes very hot
during printing. Be careful not to touch
it.
If you are only replacing the drum
cartridge, place the imaging cartridge
on a piece of paper on a horizontal
surface. Make sure that the cartridge
lies fiat.
If you are only replacing the imaging
cartridge, go to Step 8.

Replacing the cartridges
Your fax uses the following imaging cartridge and drum cartridge. These can be
obtained from your dealer or retailer.
FO-26DC IMAGING CARTRIDGE
FO-26DR DRUM CARTRIDGE
The imaging cartridge is capable of printing approximately 2000 pages if A4 size
paper is used and 4% of each page is covered with toner. When the cartridge nears
empty (about 250 pages can still be printed), the & indicator on the operation panel
will begin to blink. When the cartridge is empty, the indicator will light steadily and
TONER EMPTY will appear in the display. Replace the cartridge as described above.
To assure printing quality, we recommend that you replace the drum cartridge after
20,000 pages have been printed. You can check the total number of pages printed in
the display by pressing the FUNCTION key and then the “#” key.
