exceeded its rated usage of 10,000 pages (for example, printing a
very large quantity of pages with very little toner coverage).
1
Replace the toner cartridge.
2
Reduce the number of pages that you print with very low toner
coverage.
3
Use the 6,000-page cartridge if you cannot reduce the number of
pages with very little toner coverage (part number C8061A).
