      NOTE:  If toner comes into contact with your clothing,  wipe the toner off with a dry cloth and wash your clothing in cold water. Hot water 
    sets toner into fabric.
      CAUTION :  To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose the toner cartridge to light for more than a few minutes.
      CAUTION :  Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.    
    						
    							   
     
     
    5. Unfold the toner cartridge handle and grasp it. Insert the cartridge into the printer until it snaps into place.

    3. Insert the other end of the cable into an available USB port on the computer. Do not use the USB keyboard port.    
       
    Powering On the Printer   NOTE:  Improper adjustment of paper guides can result in paper jams.    
       
      NOTE:  Connecting the printer to the USB port of the computer requires a certified USB cable. You will need to buy a USB 1.1 compliant cable that

          CAUTION:  The fusing area at the rear part of the inside of your printer becomes hot once the  printer is powered on. Be careful not to be burned 
    when you access this area.  
      CAUTION:  Do not disassemble the printer when it is powered on. If  you do, you may receive an electric shock.

    							Maintenance   
         
       
     
    Cleaning Your Printer  
      To maintain print quality, follow the cleaning procedures below, each time the toner cartridge is replaced or  if print quality problems occur .  
       
    Cleaning the Exterior  
      Clean the printer cabinet with a soft, damp, and lint - free cloth. Do not let water drip onto the printer or inside the printer.  
       
    Cleaning the Interior  
      Paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer and cause print quality problems, such as smearing or toner specks. Clean inside the printer 
    to prevent these problems.  
    1. Power the printer off and unplug the power cord. Wait approximately 10 minutes for the printer to cool down.  
     
    2. Open the front cover.  
     
       
     
     
    3. Gently pull the toner cartridge out, being careful not to scratch against the printer, and lift it up and away from the printer. Set it on a clean flat surface.  
     
       
     
    4. With a dry and lint - free cloth, wipe away any dust and spilled toner from the toner cartridge area and the toner cartridge cavity.

       Maintaining the Toner Cartridge 
       Ordering Supplies
    NOTE:  Do not touch the transfer roller located under the toner cartridge when cleaning inside the printer. Oil from your fingers may cause print quality 
    problems.
      CAUTION:  Cleaning solvents that contain alcohol or other strong substances may discolor or  crack the printer cabinet.  
      CAUTION:  To prevent damage to the toner cartridge, do not expose the toner cartridge to light for more than a few minutes.
      CAUTION:  Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.  
    						
    							   
     
    5. Reinsert the toner cartridge and close the front cover.  
     
    6. Plug in the power cord and power the printer on.    
       
     
    Maintaining the Toner Cartridge  
         
    Storing the Toner Cartridge  
    Store the toner cartridge in the original packaging until you are ready to install it.  
       
    Do not store the toner cartridge in:   
       
    l Temperatures greater than 40°C (104°Fyf  
     
         
    l An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature  
     
         
    l Direct sunlight  
     
         
    l Dusty places  
     
         
    l A car for a long period of time  
     
         
    l An environment where corrosive gases are present  
     
         
    l An environment with salty air  
     
       
    Saving Toner  
       
    To save toner, enable the Toner Save mode in the printer properties window. For details, see  Graphics Tab . Selecting this option will extend the life of the 
    toner cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but will reduce print quality.  
       
    Viewing Toner Levels   
       
    You can check the level of toner remaining in the toner cartridge in the Printing Status window each time you send a print job to the printer. If you are having 
    print quality problems, this can help you determine if the problem is caused by low toner.  
       
    In the Printing Status window, you will see how much toner is remaining.  
        CAUTION:  Do not touch the transfer roller inside the printer. Oil from your fingers may cause print quality problems.  
    						
    							   
       
    Redistributing Toner  
       
    When the toner cartridge is near the end of its life, white streaks or light printing occur.    on the printers operator panel lights orange. Thoroughly shake 
    the toner cartridge from side - to - side 5 or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly and temporarily improve print quality.  
    1. Open the front cover.  
     
       
     
    2. Gently pull the toner cartridge out, being careful not to scratch against printer, and lift it up and away from the printer. Thoroughly shake the cartridge 5 
    or 6 times to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge.  
     
       
     
     
     
    3. Reinstall the cartridge and close the front cover.  
     
         
    Replacing the Toner Cartridge  
       
    When the toner eventually runs out, only blank pages print. At this stage, the toner cartridge needs to be replaced.   
       
    Order an extra toner cartridge so you will have it on hand when the current cartridge no longer prints satisfactorily. See  Ordering Supplies  for information on 
    ordering toner cartridges.   
       
    To replace the toner cartridge:  
    1. Open the front cover.  
      NOTE:  If toner comes into contact with your clothing,  wipe the toner off with a dry cloth and wash your clothing in cold water. Hot water sets toner 
    into fabric.
      CAUTION:  Do not touch the green underside of the toner cartridge. Use the handle on the cartridge to avoid touching this area.
      CAUTION:  For best results, use Dell toner cartridges. Print quality and printer reliability are not  guaranteed if you do not use Dell supplies.
