Waste Toner Bottle Full Detection And Set Detection - Ricoh G190 Service Manual

6.5.6 WASTE TONER BOTTLE FULL DETECTION AND SET
DETECTION
The left cover sensor in the main frame detects when the left cover is open. It also detects if
the waste toner bottle is put in the machine. If the "Close Front/Left Cover" shows on the
LCD when the cover is closed, check if the waste toner bottle is in the machine.
The waste toner sensor [A] detects when the bottle is almost full.
When the bottle contains a set quantity of waste toner, the sensor turns off. The machine
detects that the waste toner bottle is almost full.
After that, the machine can print approximately 1250 more sheets. After printing 1250
sheets, it shows "Replace Waste Toner bottle" and after the end of the job, the printer
cannot be used until the bottle is replaced or emptied.
The number of sheets is calculated for a paper size of A4 and an image coverage
ratio for each color of 5%.
