Storage Precautions
• Do not store cartridges or copy paper in places exposed to open flames, as this may cause the
toner or copy paper to ignite and resulting in burns or a fire.
• Keep cartridges and other consumables out of the reach of children. If the contents of these items
are ingested, consult a physician immediately.
• Place the cartridge in its protective bag so that the side with the written instructions is facing upward.
Then, place the bagged cartridge into its shipping box. Store the unused cartridge out of direct sunlight.
• For partially used/opened cartridges, place the cartridge in its protective bag so that the side with the
written instructions is facing upward. Then place the bagged cartridge into its shipping box and store it
away from direct sunlight.
• Avoid storing the cartridge in front of heaters and humidifiers, etc. Store it in a location where the
temperature does not exceed 40°C.
• The recommended storage conditions are as follows:
Temperature 15°C to 27°C
Relative Humidity 20% to 80%.
• Do not stand the cartridge on end or turn it upside down.

Place the cartridge in its protective bag so that the side with the written instructions is facing upward. Then, place
the cartridge into its shipping box. Be sure to securely close the lid of the shipping box.
If you do not have the protective bag or shipping box for the cartridge, store the cartridge in a dark location.
