REPLACING THE TONER CARTRIDGE
The printer can print approximately 2,400 pages (5% coverage: A4/Letter) with one toner
cartridge. When the toner cartridge is running low, the
Alarm
and
Data
(Toner) lamps blink
once every 5 seconds to indicate toner low.
Initially, some models are supplied with a
starter toner cartridge which must be replaced after 1,000 pages.
Note
Actual page count will vary depending on your average document type. (i.e.:
standard letter, detailed graphics, etc.)
It is recommended that you always keep a new toner cartridge ready for use for when
you get the toner low warning.
Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not sure of
them, consult your local dealer. Be sure to seal up the toner cartridge tightly so that
toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. Do not discard used toner cartridges
together with domestic rubbish.
It is recommended that you clean the printer when you replace the toner cartridge.

Caution
You may print approximately 100 pages after the first toner low indication. Both
Alarm
and
Data
(Toner) lamps will blink continuously to indicate that the toner is
empty. Once this indication appears, your printer cannot resume printing until you
have installed a new toner cartridge.
Keep the drum unit level after removing the toner cartridge, to avoid
possible toner spill or scatter.
Follow these steps to replace the toner cartridge:
1
Open the top cover towards you. Remove
the drum unit by holding each side of the
drum and gently lifting the drum forwards
towards you.
Note
It is recommended to put the drum unit on a
piece of disposable paper or cloth in case of
accidental toner spill or scatter.
