EPSON AcuLaser C3800 User's Guide
❏ When removing the imaging cartridge, do not expose it to sunlight at all and avoid
exposing it to room light for more than five minutes. The imaging cartridge contains a
light-sensitive drum that is purple. Exposure to light can damage the drum, causing
dark or light areas to appear on the printed page and reducing the service life of the
drum. If you need to keep the imaging cartridge out of the printer for long periods, cover
it with an opaque cloth.
❏ Be careful not to scratch the surface of the drum. When you remove the imaging
cartridge from the printer, always place it on a clean, smooth surface. Avoid touching
the drum, since oil from your skin can permanently damage its surface and affect print
quality.
❏ To get the best print quality, do not store the imaging cartridge in an area subject to
direct sunlight, dust, salty air, or corrosive gases (such as ammonia). Avoid locations
subject to extreme or rapid changes in temperature or humidity.
❏ Be sure to keep consumable components out of the reach of children.
❏ Do not leave jammed paper inside the printer. This can cause the printer to overheat.
❏ Avoid sharing outlets with other appliances.
❏ Use only an outlet that meets the power requirements of this printer.
