Redistributing toner

When toner is low, faded or light areas
may appear on a printed page. You may
be able to temporarily improve print
quality by redistributing the toner. The
following procedure may allow you to
finish the current print job before
replacing the toner cartridge.

Note

If the scanner is attached, it may be
necessary to move the printer to the
edge of the work space before opening
the printer door in order to get the full
range of motion.

1

Open the printer door and remove
the toner cartridge from the printer.

CAUTION

To prevent damage, do not expose the
toner cartridge to light for more than a
few minutes. Cover it with a sheet of
paper.

2

Gently shake the toner cartridge
from side-to-side to redistribute the
toner.

CAUTION

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off
with a dry cloth and wash clothing in cold
water.

Hot water sets toner into fabric.

3

Reinsert the toner cartridge into the
printer and close the printer door.

If the print remains light, install a new
toner cartridge. See “
