THIS CARTRIDGE DOES NOT HAVE THE OPC DRUM UNIT INTEGRATED.  THE DRUM UNIT IS A SEPARATE, REPLACEABLE, MAINTENANCE ITEM.

Not Recognizing

 

Verify you have the correct drum unit for your specific model printer.

 

There is no smart chip on this cartridge so it’s key that the cartridge is installed correctly into the printer and is fully inserted.  With this toner cartridge there is also a waste toner bottle and a replacement grid cleaner which must be replaced along with the toner cartridge.

Print Quality Issues

 

Ghosting, streaking, lines, and repeating image defects are drum related issues.  The drum is a maintenance item and will need to replaced, usually after 4-6 toner changes.  We do not currently carry a replacement drum kit.

 

Tap on the upper part of the new toner cartridge 5-6 times.

Included with the replacement cartridge is a gear knob.  Install the gear knob onto the center gear on the side of the cartridge.  Rotate the gear using the knob several times to agitate the toner powder inside the cartridge.  Remove the knob after agitating the toner; do not install the cartridge into the printer with the knob still attached.
