Get it ready
Six steps from box to power on. Keep the box and packing in case you ever move or ship the printer.
- 1UnpackSet the printer on a sturdy, level surface with room to open the trays and covers. The toner and drum ship inside.
- 2Remove the orange tape and packingCheck all five spots: the outside tape, the rear cover, the scanner glass, the front cover, and the paper tray. Keep the box in case you ever ship the printer.
- 3Take out the two shipping spacersThey sit behind the rear cover and are easy to miss. Open the rear cover, lower both ends of the paper path, push the green levers down, and pull out both spacers. Close the cover when you’re done.
- 4Get the toner readyOpen the front cover, lift out the drum unit, and peel off all tape. To reach the seal, push the latch to unclip the toner from the drum. Pull the seal, rock the toner 10 times, click it back into the drum, slide it in, press down, and close the cover. Don’t touch the drum’s roller.
- 5Load paperFan the stack first so sheets don’t stick together. Pull out the tray, slide the guides to your paper size, load paper print side down, and push the tray in.
