The following error messages require operator intervention; they are listed numerically.
02 TONER LOW
Meaning: The toner in the printer cartridge is low.
Action: Check the next several pages of printed output. If the print quality is
acceptable, press the Continue/Enter key to clear the message. Ensure that a
new toner cartridge is available. When the print quality becomes unacceptable,
install the new toner cartridge (see “Changing the Toner Cartridge” on page 111).
Note: If the print quality is unacceptable and you do not have a new toner
cartridge, remove the old cartridge from the printer and gently rock it back and
forth. This may temporarily improve the print quality of the old cartridge.
