How to Install Lexmark CX820 Return Program Black Developer/Photoconductor Unit

Before you begin, power down the printer, unplug the power cord, and allow any internal components to cool. Open the printer access panel according to the Lexmark CX820 service procedure and locate the current developer and photoconductor assembly. Carefully release the existing unit using the prescribed latches or guides, taking care not to touch the photoconductor surface. Remove the old unit and inspect the seating area for any debris or damage. Align the new Return Program Developer/Photoconductor Unit with the guides in the imaging module, ensuring full engagement of all connectors and locks. Re-seat gently but firmly to avoid jetting misalignment. Close the access panel and reinitialize the printer. Run a few clean and alignment pages to verify print quality. If any issues persist, re-check seating and consult Lexmark support or your authorized service provider. For best results, use the recommended Unison toner in conjunction with this unit to maintain optimum image fidelity and system reliability.

Tips for optimal performance:

• Perform a printer calibration after installation to ensure consistent density and color balance.
• Avoid handling the photoconductor surface; oils from fingers can affect image quality.
• Store replacement units in a clean, dry environment to prevent contamination prior to installation.
