Replacing the Toner Cartridge

This section describes how to recognize the replacement period of Toner Cartridges.

When the "[COLOR] Toner Low" message ("[COLOR]" indicates C (cyan), M (magenta), Y (yellow) or K (black)) which appears on the display screen, prepare a replacement toner cartridge.

When the "[COLOR] Toner Empty" appears and printing is stopped, replace the toner cartridge.

Memo

Even if the cyan (blue), magenta (red) or yellow toner cartridges run out, you can print in black and white by selecting [Monochrome] or [Grayscale]. However, please replace the toner cartridge quickly after it runs out, as not doing so may cause the image drum to be damaged.

Note

  • Have a new toner cartridge ready, as the print quality declines after more than one year following breaking the seal.

  • If you replace the toner cartridge/image drum while it is being used, the amount of toner used will not be counted normally.

  • By opening and closing the output tray after the message "Color toner has run out" is displayed, you are able to print. However further printing operations will not be possible after that. Please replace the toner cartridge as failure to do so may damage the image drum.

  • Toner powder may spill if you remove a toner cartridge before the toner runs out.
