I've recently acquired a DEC LN03 laser printer

used.
Something about it makes me think I better find out more before I turn
it on again for the first time. There is a little information on the
internet about toner replacement - I was wondering if I could call on
collective wisdom to find out what the best course of action is to
ensure success when I first hit the power switch.
For example, the words toner collection bottle and ozone filter make me
think I should know a little more first!
I wouldn't worry too much about it. It's a standard first-gen Ricoh
engine. Most (all?) laser printers have a waste toner collection
system; with unified drum-and-toner cartridge systems it's usually a
part of the toner cartridge. Also, at least the Canon CX engine has an
ozone filter, I think the SX and later ones do as well.
It's not too weird an animal.
