28.2 Photo conductor section


28.2.1 NOTE When the drum section has been removed, be sure to store it in a dark place with the drum cover provided. When removing/reinstalling the photo conductor section, be careful not to rotate the drum in any direction other than the specified direction. Rotating it in the opposite direction to the rotational direction while printing damages the cleaning blade. When removing the photo conductor section, be sure to clean the coupling. When removing/reinstalling the photo conductor section, be sure not to touch the drum claw. When replacing the photo conductor, be sure to replace the cleaning blade at the same time. A. Procedure Removing/reinstalling the photo conductor section
