Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The machine can print up to 6,000 pages using a high yield toner cartridge.
When the toner cartridge is running low, the display shows

TONER LOW

. The

machine is supplied with a standard toner cartridge that must be replaced after
approximately 3,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your
average document type (i.e., standard letter, detailed graphics).

It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the
toner low warning.

Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not
sure of them, consult Brother Customer Service. Be sure to seal the toner
cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. When
discarding used toner cartridges, keep them separate from domestic garbage.

We recommend that you clean the machine when you replace the toner
cartridge.

Toner Empty Indicator

When the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows

TONER LOW

and

the Toner Empty icon on the control panel flashes on and off to indicate the
toner is low.

The Toner Empty icon appears and the LCD shows

TONER EMPTY

. Once

this icon appears, your machine will not resume printing until you install a new
toner cartridge.
