Storingthetonercartridge 	 Store in the following environment to ensure safe and satisfactory use.
Storage temperature range: 32 to 95rF (0 to 35rC)
Storage humidity range: 35 to 85% RH (relative humidity/no condensation) *
	 Store without opening until the toner cartridge is to be used.
	 When removing the toner cartridge from this machine for storage, place the removed toner cartridge into
the original protective bag or wrap it with a thick cloth.
	 When storing the toner cartridge, do not store it upright or upside down. The toner will solidify and may not
return to its original condition even if it is shaken.
*  Even within the storable humidity range, water droplets (condensation) may develop inside the toner cartridge if there is a
difference of temperature inside and outside the toner cartridge. Condensation will adversely affect the print quality of toner cartridges.
