6.1.2 Toner Kits
It is strongly recommended to use the new Kyocera Mita TK-82 Toner Kit supplied from
Kyocera Mita to prevent printer troubles and ensure a long printer life.
The TK-82 Toner Kits are supplied in each of the following four colors. The letter following
TK-82 describes the color of toner included in the container as follows:
A new TK-82 toner kit for each color contains the following items:
• Toner Container
• Cleaning cloth
• Grid cleaner for main charger cleaning
• Plastic waste bags for old toner container and old waste toner bottle
• Waste toner bottle
• Installation Guide
Note
Do not remove the toner container from the carton until you are ready to install it in the
printer.
6.1.3 Understanding Messages Requesting Toner Container Replacement
The printer displays messages for individual colors at two stages of toner usage. This message
is automatically alternated with the other printer message (such as Ready):
• When the printer becomes low on toner, for example in the cyan container, the printer
displays the message
Toner low TK-82C
as the first caution. Note the replacement
is not always necessary at this stage.
• If you ignore the above message and continue printing, the printer displays the message
Replace Toner
/
Clean printer
— just before the toner is used up. The toner
container must be replaced immediately. After the replacement is finished, the massage
automatically changes to
Clean printer Press GO
. Clean the separate charger
wires, etc. After the cleaning is finished, however, the message does not automatically
change to
Ready
. To restart printing, you must press the
GO
key and make the printer
ready.
In either case, to replace the toner container, see Section 6.1.4 Replacing the Toner Container
on page 6-4.
