Oki ES8453 MFP User Manual - Replacing The Belt Unit
Replacing the Belt Unit
When the "Belt Unit Near Life" message appears on the display screen, prepare a
replacement belt unit. You can keep printing approximately 2,000 pages until the next
message appears.
When the "Change Belt Unit" message appears, replace the belt unit.
The life expectancy of the belt unit is approximately 80,000 pages for A4 simplex printing
(three pages per job).
Note
The actual number of pages you can print with the belt unit depends on how you use it.
Though opening and closing the output tray may extend the life of the belt unit somewhat,
you should replace it soon after the "Change Belt Unit" is displayed to prevent malfunction.
If you replace the belt unit, use it until the end of its useable life. If you remove the belt unit
and install and use another one before its usable life has expired, the use life will not be
correctly displayed.
When the [Device Setting] > [Admin Setup] > [Management] > [System Setup] > [Near Life
Status] is set to [Disable], the [Belt Unit Near Life] message does not appear.
The image drum (the green tube) is very delicate. Handle it carefully.
Do not expose the image drum to direct sunlight or very bright interior light (approximately
more than 1,500 lux). Even under the normal interior light, do not leave it for more than
5 minutes.
Memo
You can change the setting for displaying the "Belt Unit Near Life" message. Set from [Device
Setting] > [Admin Setup] > [User Install] > [Belt Near Life Timing]. Available values are from
500 to 5,000 (in 500 increaments).
