stops.
If the Toner Low alarm is enabled, the printer stops printing until you:
• Press and release Continue. You can continue printing for a
short time before the print begins to fade.
• Remove the print cartridge. To utilize the remaining toner,
shake the print cartridge gently, and then reinstall it. See
page 72 in Replacing the print cartridge for an illustration of
how to shake the print cartridge.
• Replace the used print cartridge with a new one to ensure the
print quality is not degraded. See Replacing the print
cartridge for instructions.
Note: To change the Toner Low Alarm setting, download the Local
Printer Setup Utility available on Lexmark’s Web site at
www.lexmark.com. It may also be provided on the drivers CD for the
printer. Check the drivers CD booklet to verify this. For more
information, see Using the Local Printer Setup Utility.
