    Replacing Consumable Products
    Precautions During Replacement
    Always observe the following handling precautions when replacing consumable products:
    ❏Provide enough space for the replacement procedure. You will have to open some parts (such
    as the printer cover) of the printer when you are replacing consumables.
    ❏Do not install used consumable products into the printer.
    w
    Warning:
    ❏Be careful not to touch the fuser, which is marked CAUTION Hot Surface, or the
    surrounding areas. If the printer has been in use, the fuser and surrounding areas may be
    very hot.
    ❏Do not dispose of used consumable products in fire, as they may explode and cause injury.
    Dispose of them according to local regulations.
    Developer Cartridge
    You need to replace the developer cartridge when a notice message is displayed on the window of
    the EPSON Status Monitor 3.
    When the Toner light is on and the Error light is flashing slowly on the EPL-6200 or the Ready
    light is on and the Error light is flashing on the AcuLaser M1200/EPL-6200L, the printer has run
    out of toner. If the indicator lights light up in this manner, or if a message is displayed on the
    EPSON Status Monitor 3 screen, replace the developer cartridge.
    Always observe the following handling precautions when replacing developer cartridges:
    ❏Installing a genuine consumable product is recommended. Using a non-genuine consumable
    product may affect print quality. Epson shall not be liable for any damages or problems arising
    from the use of consumable products not manufactured or approved by Epson.
    ❏When handling developer cartridges, always place them on a clean, smooth surface.

    							❏If you move a developer cartridge from a cool to a warm environment, wait for at least one
    hour before installing it to prevent damage from condensation.
    w
    Warning:
    ❏Do not touch the toner in developer cartridges. Always keep toner away from your eyes. If
    toner gets on your skin or clothes, wash it off with soap and water immediately.
    ❏Keep developer cartridges out of the reach of children.
    ❏Do not dispose of used developer cartridges in fire, as they may explode and cause injury.
    Dispose of them according to local regulations.
    ❏If toner is spilled, use a broom and dustpan or a damp cloth with soap and water to clean it
    up. Because the fine particles can cause a fire or explosion if they come into contact with a
    spark, do not use a vacuum cleaner.
    Replacing the developer cartridge
    Follow these steps to replace the developer cartridge:
    Note:
    ❏The developer cartridge is not an independent unit that you install directly into the printer. The
    cartridge needs to be inserted into the photoconductor unit’s casing and then installed into the
    printer.
    ❏The illustrations used in this procedure show the EPL-6200.
    1. Lower the printer’s output tray.
