Installing/Replacing the Toner Cartridge
The machine uses the Canon Cartridge T. The procedure on the next page explains how to install the
cartridge for the first time, and how to replace it when the toner runs out.
When the message <REPLACE CARTRIDGE> appears, the toner in the cartridge may simply be
unevenly distributed. Before replacing the cartridge, follow the instructions on p. 2-19 to evenly
distribute the toner. If the message remains displayed or the print quality is low, after doing this replace
the cartridge as described below.
NOTE
Canon makes numerous cartridges. However, the Canon genuine Cartridge T Starter and the Canon genuine
regular Cartridge T are the only one which Canon recommends you to use with your machine. The Canon genuine
Cartridge T Starter that comes with your machine can yield approx. 2,500 page of printouts (based on 5%
coverage of a A4-size page), while the Canon genuine Cartridge T you purchase can yield approx. 3,500 page of
printouts (based on 5% coverage of a A4-size page). But the Canon genuine Cartridge T Starter is identical to the
Canon genuine regular Cartridge T otherwise.
