About the PrintersLexmark® Models
In July 2001 Lexmark® introduced the T520,T522, T620 and T622, the latest base models oftheir T-series laser printers. After seven years ofOptra® products, the name was dropped, simpli-fying the model numbering scheme. Many of thefeatures of the original Optra T-series wereretained, with these latest T-machines contain-ing new, faster engines based on Lexmarkengine technology. The physical design wasunchanged from that of their predecessors, butthe engines were redesigned for faster perform-ance and paper handling.
T520 and T522 models replace the OptraM410 and M412 printers respectively, and aremostly identical to one another, except forspeed and duty cycles, which were increasedalong with toner yields.
The new series includes the base T520 andT522, the network-ready T520n and T522n, aT520d with duplex unit standard, and T520dnand T522dn network-ready models with duplexunits standard. All seven models use the sameprint cartridges.
The T520 and T522 printers were target-ed at small-to-medium size workgroups,and both shipped with 5,000-page startercartridges.
The T620 model replaced the Optra T614printers, while the T622 model replaced theOptra T616 printers. At the time of release, theT620 and T622 offered the highest yield of anyoffice printer on the market, and were thefastest of any laser printer under $2,000. Theircartridges include a new smart chip similar to,but more powerful than those in the Optra T-series. As with the T500 models, print speedswere increased, as were duty cycles and toneryields.
The new 600 series includes the baseT620 and T622, the network-ready T620n
and T622n, and T620dn and T622dn net-work-ready models with duplex units stan-dard. The T620in and T622in models,
released in August 2001, allowed printing ofpre-programmed web pages without having toconnect to a PC.
The T620 and T622 printers were targeted atlarge workgroups and corporate enterpriseapplications. Both shipped with 10,000-pagestarter cartridges.
IBM® ModelsIn June 2001 IBM® announced their InfoPrint®
1000 family of workgroup laser printers, whichutilizes the same Samsung® engine as theLexmark T-series. The Infoprint 1120 is based onthe Lexmark T520, and the 1125 on the T522.The Infoprint 1130 is based on the LexmarkT620, and the 1140 on the T622. IBM's Infoprint20, 21, 32 and 40 are replaced by the new 1000-series machines.
The specifications for IBM's Infoprint 1000-series printers are, in fact, nearly identical tothose offered for the Lexmark counterparts,with the only difference being the brand name,chips, and consumable supplies. The printerswere offered in the same configurations asLexmark’s, in nearly twin cartridges.
About the CartridgesLexmark®
The cartridges for the new T-series printersinclude new smart chips, similar to, but morepowerful than those in the Optra T-series, with a"signature" feature added. The physical designof the cartridges was modified to make them

incompatible with the Optra models. Standard and high yield cartridges in both Prebate and non-Prebate versions are available,as well as a MICR cartridge and a high yield Prebate cartridge forspecial label applications.
IBM®
Static Control’s Imaging Labs have determined that, with theproper chips, the cartridges are interchangeable betweenLexmark and IBM printers, respective of the model compatibility.
IBM® has a Return Program similar to Lexmark’s Prebate offer-ing that provides customers with an upfront discounted price onselect cartridges. This discount is based on a customer’s commit-ment to return the empty cartridge back to IBM with the postagepaid label included in the original packaging.
1120/1125, 1130/1140 cartridges come in Standard, StandardReturn, High-Yield, High-Yield Return and MICR versions.
Key PointsThe cartridge waste bin sections are designed with compatibility
features that make them unusable in any Optra® or other T-seriesmachines. The T520/T522 and 1120/1125 cartridges have a notchmolded into the edge of the waste bin that the T620/T622 and1130/1140 cartridges do not. Instead, the T620/T622 and 1130/1140waste bins feature corners that are inset. Because of these featuresthe T520/T522and 1120/1125 cartridges are not interchangeablewith T620/T622 and 1130/1140, or vice versa.
The original Optra® T-series cartridges utilized a drum shutter.The designs were changed with the release of the T-series, exclud-ing this shutter and exposing the drum. IBM versions reflect thesame changes. Additional precautions should be used when han-dling and packaging these cartridges to avoid light and impactdamage to the OPC drum.
An electronic chip is located on the drum electrical contact sideof the waste bins. This chip allows the printer to recognize whattype of cartridge has been installed. If an incorrect chip is present,an “Unsupported Print Cartridge” error appears on the displaypanel.
Only two encoder wheels are used for all models of the car-tridges. Prebate/Return Program wheels are black, non-Prebate/non-Return Program wheels are white. An identification code isstamped on each wheel, with 12A0110 on the Prebate/Return (bothstandard and high-yield) wheels. The code 12A0601 is on both theStandard and high-yield non-Prebate/non-Return Programwheels.
The chip and wheel settings are matched. A non-Prebate/non-Return Program wheel and Prebate/Return Program chip (or viseversa) on the same cartridge will result in an “Unsupported PrintCartridge” error message being displayed when the cartridge isinstalled in the printer. However, when both the proper chip andwheel combination is present, this error message will not be dis-played.
OEM doctor bar springs are stamped with either a “15V”(T520/522, 1120/1125), "16V" (T620/622), or “V” (1130/1140). SCCreplacement doctor bars are stamped with either “T5”(T520/522, 1120/1125) or “T6” (T620/622, 1130/1140)
Static Control’s Imaging Labs have determined that, with theproper chips, the cartridges are interchangeable between the twobrands, respective of the model compatibility.
Many of Optra S, Se and T cartridge components are compati-ble with the T520/T522, T620/T622, as well as the IBM 1120/1125and 1130/1140 cartridges. For more information, log onto www.scc-inc.com/imaging/Imaging.htm.

Use of Compressed AirAs of April 28, 1971, the Occupational Safety & HealthAdministration (OSHA) Standard, 29 CFR 1910.242 paragraphs a & b for general industry requires effective chip guarding andpersonal protective equipment (PPE) when using compressedair. When cleaning residual toner particles from cartridgesusing a compressed air system, you must use air nozzles meet-ing OSHA requirements. Air nozzles that regulate air pressureto a maximum of 30 psi comply with this standard. Refer to theOSHA publication for any updates or changes that haveoccurred since the date noted above.
Use of Isopropyl AlcoholFor best results, we recommend using ONLY 91-99% for clean-ing as directed in these instructions. 91% isopropyl alcohol isavailable at most major drug stores; 99% isopropyl alcohol isavailable through distributors of chemical products. Follow the alcohol manufacturer's safety instructions.

7. Check the developer roller sealing bladesDeveloper roller sealing blades prevent toner leakage from thedeveloper chamber. The inner sealing blade is in direct contactwith the developer roller, and the secondary outer sealing bladeis located outside the hopper (FIG 51).
FIG 51
NOTE Both inner and outer blades are made of polyester andhave poor “memory”, meaning that once bent or kinked theydo not return to their original configuration. Damaged bladescan cause toner leakage that results in “sprinkles” of toner onthe printed page or, more noticeably, as toner on the edge ofthe paper. Static Control recommends replacing the develop-er blades only when they are damaged or are loose(4059INSB/4059OUTSB).
If the inner and outer developer roller sealing blades need to bereplaced, refer to System Support Series™ 149, “How to installyour 4059 Developer Roller Sealing Blades”.
If the sealing blades do not need replacing at this time, carefullyclean them using ionized, dry, filtered, compressed air.

Safeguarding Your Cartridges
Your cartridge is now ready for post-testing in your printer.
Avoid OPC Impact Damage During ShippingThe design of the hopper and waste bin sections allows thepotential for impact damage to the OPC drum and developerroller anytime the cartridge is being moved, and especially dur-ing shipping. This damage can result in print defects. OEM car-tridges come with a shipping lock, which creates a separationbetween the developer roller and OPC drum so that these com-ponents are not in contact during shipping. Static Control offersan OEM-type shipping lock that installs easily on remanufac-tured cartridges (FIG 87), with an instruction card that promptsthe end-user to remove the lock before installing the unit in theprinter (4059SLOCK).

NOTE The T520/T522, T620/T622, 1120/1125, and 1130/1140waste bins have a “compatibility” tab located on the smallhelical gear end of the waste bin housing (FIG 86). This tabis the same on all eight models, and prevents the cartridgesfrom being inserted into an incompatible printer, such asan Optra® S or T.
Static Control recommends post-testing your cartridgesafter remanufacturing, and stresses that you make certainto post-test your cartridge in the correct printer. FIG 86
