The status of toner cartridges is indicated by the Status LED and the LCD
display. If the toner cartridge is low or needs to be replaced, the Status LED
turns red and the display shows the message. However the arrow mark
shows which color toner is of concern or may be installed with a new
cartridge.
Example:
The above example shows the yellow cartridge status indicated by the
arrow. Check the message to find out what the problem is and how to solve
it. See "Understanding display messages" on page 55 to browse the
detailed information on error messages.

cartridge life, which indicates the average capacity of print-outs and is
designed pursuant to ISO/OEC 19798. (See "Specifications" on

environment, printing interval, media type, and media size. Some
amount of toner may remain in the cartridge even when "Toner
