Maintenance Kit (PL 1.24) The system uses a maintenance kit as part of its self-maintenance routine to coat the print drum with oil before each print. For a detailed explanation on the functions of the maintenance kit, see "Drum Maintenance System" on page 2-37. Maintenance Kit Life Standard/Startup Maintenance Kit Life Any Coverage* 10,000 Extended Maintenance Kit Life 0 - 20% Coverage* 30,000 20 - 100% Coverage* 20,000 *The image coverage is determined by counting the number of pixels imaged. Maintenance Kit Low A control panel message indicates when the maintenance kit is low. Printing is still possible when the maintenance kit is low. Maintenance Kit Empty When the control panel message indicates that the maintenance kit is "empty," the maintenance kit must be replaced before continued printing is possible. See the installation instructions included with the maintenance kit. Note The maintenance kit oil poses no known adverse health effects. See the Material Safety Data Sheet at www.xerox.com/office/msds. Waste Tray (PL 1.23) The waste tray collects ink that has been purged from the printhead's ink jets. A control panel message indicates when the waste tray is full, usually after seven purges. You should then empty the waste tray. Caution Never reuse the waste ink; it can damage the printhead.
