Maintaining your printer for long term storage
If you turn the printer off for an extended period, remove the fuser. Pull the fuser pressure release levers open and then
store the fuser. To pull the fuser pressure release levers open, see page 45 for an illustration.
Storing supplies
Use the following guidelines for proper storage.
Storing media
These help avoid media feeding problems and uneven print quality:
• For best results, store media in an environment where the temperature is approximately 21°C (70°F) and the
relative humidity is 40%.
• Store cartons of media on a pallet or shelf, rather than directly on the floor.
• If you store individual packages of media out of the original carton, make sure they rest on a flat surface so the
edges do not buckle or curl.
• Do not place anything on top of the media packages.
Storing the toner cartridges
Store toner cartridges in their original packaging until you are ready to install them.
Do not store toner cartridges in:
• Temperatures greater than 40°C (104°F)
• An environment with extreme changes in humidity or temperature
• Direct sunlight
• Dusty places
• A car for a long period of time
• An environment where corrosive gases are present
• An environment with salty air
