Safety Information

Observe the following safety precautions when handling toner cartridges:

  • Keep toner cartridges out of reach of children.
  • Do not incinerate used toner cartridges. The toner powder can ignite, causing burns.
  • Avoid inhaling toner dust. If toner is spilled, wipe it up immediately with a dry cloth. Do not use a vacuum cleaner, as the fine particles may cause an explosion or fire.
  • If toner gets on your skin or clothing, wash it off immediately with soap and cold water. Hot water will set the toner, making it difficult to remove.
  • Store toner cartridges in their original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Before installing the new toner cartridge, carefully unpack it from its protective packaging.

  1. Open the outer shipping box.
