Toner-approved
vacuums are available in both US and European voltages. These
vacuums are equipped with special filters fine enough to catch
toner powder particles. Toner vacuums are handy for general laser cartridge cleaning, as well as for cleaning out the old
toner powder from the toner hopper and other parts of the laser cartridge. We do not recommend using a regular vacuum, as the
filters are not fine enough to contain the tiny toner powder
particles. |

Cans of
compressed air are useful for blowing off toner powder from
internal cartridge parts. When using compressed air to clean
your laser cartridges we recommend wearing both dust masks
and eye protection, as a precaution. |
 |
Toner wipes
are soft, synthetic lint-free cloths. They can be used for
cleaning work surfaces and the plastic casing of the laser cartridges. |
 |
Dust masks
are a good safety precaution when working with or around
toner powder, since inhaling excessive amounts of toner powder dust can
cause temporary minor respiratory irritation. |
 |
Drum padding
powder is a dry lubricant used mainly on the OPC drum and
wiper blade, to ensure smooth laser cartridge operation. |
 |
Drum
restorer/conditioner is a Teflon-based substance
containing silicon dioxide (aka powdered quartz). It can be
applied to an OPC drum to remedy minor scratches and wear and
in some cases extend the usable life of the drum. Drum
restorer/conditioner dries to a hardness rating of 8,
compared to the average OEM OPC drum surface's hardness rating
of 4. |
 |
PCR cleaner
is meant to clean toner powder build up from the primary charge
roller. |
 |
Conductive
grease is used to lubricate certain metal parts in some
laser cartridges. Check the particular laser cartridge's
recharge instructions for more information on application and
use. |
 |
Anti-static bags are
available in several different sizes. Use these to package
the refilled laser cartridge and protect it from
static electricity during shipping and delivery. |
