SUBJECT: PREMATURE TONER OVERFLOW DETECTION
SYMPTOM:
False toner overflow condition.
CAUSES:
1. The sensor was designed to report a near full condition immediately after detecting the presence of toner
(even if the actual condition is not near full).
2. The electrical contact between the metal plates on the Transfer Belt Unit and connector pins on the
Copier Right Cover is poor because the pins are bent.
