Toner
When to Replace the Toner Cartridge
Replace the toner cartridge after
TONER LOW
displays in the
printer control panel window. After
TONER LOW
displays,
the printer will print about 100 more pages, then display
TONER EMPTY
and stop printing. Printing will resume after a
new toner cartridge has been installed.
The use of OKI toner is highly recommended. Using compatible or
counterfeit toners can seriously damage your printer.
Toner Cartridge Life
How long your toner cartridge lasts depends on the print
density; the percentage of the page that prints black. A typical
letter has 3% to 5% print density; graphics usually have higher
density. Higher print density means toner is used up faster.
At 5% print density, a toner cartridge will print an average of
2,000 pages. Remember, this is only an average: actual results
may vary.
The first toner cartridge in your new printer has to fill the drum
reservoir and saturate the developing roller with toner. It
normally produces about 1,000 pages.
Replacing the Toner Cartridge
Do NOT remove cartridge from packaging.
Use OKI Type 5 image drum and toner cartridges only.
1. Open the cover and remove the used toner cartridge.
2. Shake the toner cartridge to evenly distribute toner.
