Maintenance 3 Maintenance This chapter contains explanations on the following topics: General Information Toner Container Replacement Replacing the Waste Toner Box Cleaning the Printer...
Toner Container Replacement The toner container in the printer should be replaced as soon as the message display shows Toner low or soon after. If you continue to use the printer, eventually the toner supply will be exhausted at which point the printer will stop printing and the Replace toner C,M,Y,K message will be shown instructing you to install a new toner kit.
This message is automatically alternated with the other printer message (such as Ready): • When the printer becomes low on toner, for example in the cyan container, the printer displays the message Toner low C as the first caution. Note the replacement is not always necessary at this stage.
This section explains how to replace the toner containers. When replacing the toner container of any color, always replace the waste toner box at the same time. If this box is full, the printer may be damaged or contaminated by the waste toner that may spill over the box.
Page 51
Do not press too firmly on the center of the toner container or touch the toner feed slot. Set the new toner container in the printer as shown in the figure below. Push down on the top of the toner container to install it firmly in place.
Replace the waste toner box when the Check waste toner box message is displayed. A new waste toner box is included with the toner kit. The waste toner box needs to be replaced before the printer will operate. Open the left cover.
Make sure that the waste toner box is correctly inserted and close the left cover. After replacing the toner containers and the waste toner box, clean the paper transfer unit. For instructions, refer to Cleaning the Printer on page 3-8.
To maintain optimum print quality, it is also recommended that the inside of the printer be cleaned once a month as well as when the toner container is replaced. It should also be cleaned if streaking or lines appear on printed copies, or if printouts appear faint or blurred.
