5.1 Precautions when replacing parts
5.1.1 Precautions when assembling and disassembling
* Use only approved Samsung spare parts. Ensure that part number, product name, any voltage, current or temperature rating are correct. Failure to do so could result in damage to the machine, circuit overload, fire or electric shock. * Do not make any unauthorized changes or additions to the printer, these could cause the printer to malfunction and create electric shock or fire hazards. * Take care when dismantling the unit to note where each screw goes. There are 19 different screws. Use of the wrong screw could lead to system failure, short circuit or electric shock. * Do not disassemble the LSU unit. Once it is disassembled dust is admitted to the mirror chamber and will seriously degrade print quality. There are no serviceable parts inside. * Regularly check the condition of the power cord, plug and socket. Bad contacts could lead to overheating and firfe. Damaged cables could lead to electric shock or unit malfunction.

5.1.2 Preautions when handling PBA
Static electricity can damage a PBA, always used approved anti-static precautions when handling or storing a PBA. >> Precautions when moving and storing PBA
1. Please keep PBA in a conductive case, anti-static bag, or wrapped in aluminum foil. 2. Do not store a PBA where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

>> Precautions when replacing PBA
1. Disconnect power connectors first, before disconnecting other cables 2. Do not touch any soldered connections, connector terminals or other electronic parts when handling insulated parts.

>> Precautions when checking PBA
1. Before touching a PBA, please touch other grounded areas of the chassis to discharge any static electrical charge on the body. 2. Take care not to touch the PBA with your bare hands or metal objects as you could create a short circuit or get an electric shock. Take extra care when handling PBAs with moving parts fitted such as sensors, motors or lamps as they may get hot. 3. Take care when fitting, or removing, screws. Look out for hidden screws. Always ensure that the correct screw is used and always ensure that when toothed washers are removed they are refitted in their original positions.

5.1.3 Releasing Plastic Latches
Many of the parts are held in place with plastic latches. The latches break easily; release them carefully. To remove such parts, press the hook end of the latch away from the part to which it is latched.

5.2 Parts for Maintenance and Repair
5.2.1 Replacement interval for parts with a limited life
Some of the parts in this printer have a limited life, shorter than that of the whole machine. These parts must be replaced periodically. The table below shows the interval at which these parts should be replaced. The table shows the life of each part, and is measured when using A4 paper. When servicing a machine always check the status of these parts using the control panel and ensure that parts are replaced at the appropriate times otherwise a general degradation in print quality will occur.

5.2.2 Printer Cleaning
A printer should be regularly cleaned, especially if it is used in a dusty environment. This will ensure that print quality remains high and failure due to contamination of printing services is less likely to occur. * Clean the printer with a soft, lint free, cloth dipped in a "Recommended cleaner" "Recommended cleaner" can be purchased from our service center. (where available) * Do not touch the transfer roller when cleaning the inside of the printer. Grease and oils from the skin will contaminate the surface and reduce print quality. * Do not touch transfer roller when cleaning inside of machine. If transfer roller gets dirty, printing quality could be low. * Please refer to the User Manual for cleaning instructions.

5.3 Information Related to Disassembly and Assembly.
5.3.1 Special service parts
Never disassemble or adjust the items mentioned, a stock of these items should be maintained.

1) Disassembly of the LSU unit
There are no serviceable parts inside the LSU. Alignment of the mirrors is critical. Opening the LSU will allow dust into the laser and significantly reduce print quality. It is very dangerous to operate or service a machine with the LSU open or system interlocks disabled. Exposure to laser radiation can cause blindness.

4) Disassembly of DEVE drive ass'y and the main drive ass'y
The alignment of the drive mechanism is critical and it has been set up in factory using a jig and a driving gear. It is adjusted for the best gearing alignment. If the motor is disassembled alignment would not be maintained and this could cause operational noise and image problems: image alignment and toner distribution may be affected.

2) Disassembly of the ITB unit
Do not disassemble the ITB. The alignment of the home sensor is critical and is set up in the factory on a special jig. Incorrect re-assembly will cause print quality degradation.

5) Disassembly of terminal parts
Do not adjust the variable resistors on the PBA. They have been already adjusted in the factory.

3) Care of the Toner cartridge
Toner cartridges contain an extremely fine powder. Please keep toner cartridges away from children. The toner powder contained in the toner cartridge may be harmful and if swallowed you should contact a doctor. Take care not to spill toner spillages should be cleaned with a vacume cleaner and washed in could water (hot water sets the toner). Do not touch the developer roller surface as contamination will reduce print quality. Take care not to damage the roller's surface when installing or removing a toner cartridge.

6) Disassembly of the fuser unit
- The fuser melts toner onto the paper at a high temperature: therefore, you need to take special care not to get burned by a hot fuser. When removing the fuser from a set that has recently been operating you need to take extra care. - Do not touch an AC line (Copper contact) on a main frame even after removing the fuser.

7) When you replace ITB Unit, be careful with following things;
- When you replace ITB Unit, carefully handle with ITB Belt. If not, it harms ITB Belt. - Do not turn ITB Belt back and forth. If not, waste toner powder would be leaked. - When shutter is working on an outlet of waste toner, be careful that waste toner powder would be leaked
