Waste toner box-in-position detection

• The waste toner full detection signal from the waste toner full sensor detects the waste
toner box set in position. (See waste toner level detection mechanism for more informa-
tion.)
• The detection of the presence of the waste toner box is performed when the main power
switch is turned ON and the front door is closed. The machine does not start printing
when it detects that the waste toner box is not set in position.
