Replacing

Consumables

Consumable Life Expectancies6

Consumable Life Expectancies

The stated life expectancy of each consumable is based on printing under

specific operating conditions, such as media type, number of color planes,

page size, and page coverage (@ normal 5% coverage of letter/A4-size

media). The actual life expectancy will vary depending on these and other

printing variables, including continuous or intermittent printing, ambient tem-

perature, and humidity. For further information about the consumables statis-

tics page and replacement menus, refer to the

CrownBook

Replacing Consumables

Attention

Failure to follow instructions as outlined in this manual could result in

voiding your warranty.

The following messages indicate that a consumable needs to be replaced.

*A plane (also called an image) is a single pass of the OPC drum (one

toner color). For example, a black-only, single-sided (simplex) print job

makes one pass per page. A single-sided color page (also called a face)

consists of up to four passes of the OPC drum, since most color print jobs

use all four toner colors. A two-sided color page may consist of up to eight

passes of the OPC drum, since most color print jobs use all four toner col-

ors. Stated consumable life is expressed at 5% in simplex letter/A4 pages.

A duplex page is equivalent to two simplex pages.

The number of sheets/faces printed shown on the startup page differs from

the number of sheets/faces printed statistics in CrownView and on the con-

sumables statistics page (Operator Control/Consumables/Print Statistics).

The numbers on the startup page refer to number of sheets/faces printed

during the lifetime of the printer. The numbers in CrownView and on the

consumables statistics page refer to the number of sheets/faces printed to

date during the current consumables tracking period (Administration/Con-

sumables/Start Period menu).

**Three items (OPC drum, laser lens cover, waste toner pack) are included

in the OPC drum kit. If one needs replacing, replace all three items.

Ordering Consumables

Choosing the right consumables for your magicolor

2210 printer not only

increases its reliability and performance, but also minimizes the risk of

damage. For example, only MINOLTA-QMS toner cartridges are designed to

meet the exact specifications of your MINOLTA-QMS printer, giving maximum

performance, efficiency, and long life.

Toner cartridges and other consumables for the magicolor

2210 are available

from your local vendor or Q-SHOP (www.q-shop.com). See the

Service &

Support Guide

for the telephone number of the MINOLTA-QMS office nearest

you for information on ordering.

Replacing Toner Cartridges

Characters and images are created in your laser printer through a process

that applies toner to the photosensitive (OPC) drum (which functions like pho-

tographic film). Your printer uses four toner cartridges: black, yellow,

magenta, and cyan. Handle the toner cartridges carefully to avoid spilling

toner inside the printer or on yourself.

The carbon-particle toner is nontoxic. If you get toner on your hands,

wash them in cool water or a neutral detergent. If you get toner on

your clothes, lightly dust them off as much as possible. If some toner

remains on your clothes, use cool, not hot water, to rinse the toner off,

provided your clothing is washable.

WARNING!

If you get toner in your eyes, wash it out immediately and consult a

doctor. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) information can be found at

www.minolta-qms.com (click on the Answer Base).

ACHTUNG! Sollte Toner in Ihre Augen gelangen, die Augen unbedingt

sofort mit kaltem Wasser ausspülen und einen Artzt aufsuchen.

MSDS-Informationen (Material Safety Data Sheets; Datenblätter zur

Materialsicherheit) finden Sie im Internet unter www.minolta-qms.com

(klicken Sie auf “Answer Base”).

Toner Cartridge Life

A toner cartridge contains enough toner (yellow, magenta, cyan, or black) to

print a maximum of 6,000 (at normal 5% page coverage) simplex letter/

A4-size pages. With heavier coverages, the approximate maximum
