Replacing a Toner Cartridge
When a toner cartridge runs low, <COLOR> TONER LOW displays in the
message window. Printing continues even though the warning appears.
However, the color gradually fades, so replace the toner cartridge as soon as
possible. Approximately 100 sheets after detecting that toner in a cartridge is
low, the printer displays
<COLOR> TONER EMPTY in the message window,
and the printer stops.
How should I handle toner cartridges?
Keep toner cartridges
Away from open flames.
In their packaging until you’re ready to install them.
In a cool, dry location away from sunlight (due to heat).
The maximum storage temperature is 95 ° F/35° C and the maximum stor-
age humidity is 80% without condensation. If the toner cartridge is moved
from a cold place to a warm, humid place, condensation may occur,
degrading print quality. Allow the toner to adapt to the environment for
about one hour before use.
Level during storage.
Do not store cartridges on their ends or turn them upside down; the toner
inside the cartridges may become caked or unequally distributed.
Away from salty air and corrosive gases such as aerosols.
Characters and images are created in your laser
printer through a process that applies toner to
the photosensitive OPCs (Organic Photo
Conductors) inside your imaging unit. Your printer uses
four toner cartridges: black, yellow, magenta, and cyan.
Handle the toner cartridges carefully to avoid spilling toner
inside the printer or on yourself.
