Understanding Messages Requesting Toner
Container Replacement
The printer displays messages 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, the printer displays the
message Toner low 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 - just before the toner is
used up. The toner container must be replaced immediately. After
the cleaning is finished, however, the message does not
automatically change to Ready. To restart printing, you must press
[GO] and make the printer ready.
In either case, replace the toner container, refer to Replacing the Toner
Container on page 1-3.
Replacing the Toner Container
This section explains how to replace the toner container. When replacing
the toner container, always replace the waste toner box at the same
time. If this box is full, the printer may be damaged or contaminated by
the waste toner that may spill over the box.
1 Open the top cover.
CAUTION Do not attempt to incinerate the Toner
Container. Dangerous sparks may cause burns.
IMPORTANT During toner container replacement, temporarily move
storage media and computer supplies (such as floppy disks) away
from the toner container. This is to avoid damaging media by the
magnetism of toner.
IMPORTANT Kyocera Mita Corporation is not liable against any
damages or problems arising from the use of toner containers other than
those designated as original Kyocera toner containers. For optimum
performance, it is also recommended to use only the Kyocera toner
containers which are specifically intended for use in your country or
region. If the toner container for another destinations is installed, the
printer will stop printing.
Note You do not have to turn printer power off before starting
the replacement. Any data that may be processing in the printer
will be deleted if you turn the printer power off
