MAINTAINING YOUR PRINTER 6. 3 Managing the Toner Cartridges Toner Cartridge Storage To get the maximum results from the toner cartridge, keep the following guidelines in mind: · Do not remove the toner cartridges from their packages until you are ready to use them. · Do not refill the toner cartridges. The printer warranty does not cover damage caused by using a refilled cartridge. · Store the toner cartridges in the same environment as the printer. · To prevent damage to the toner cartridges, do not expose them to light for more than a few minutes. Toner Cartridge Life Expectancy The life of the toner cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print jobs require. When printing text at 5% coverage, a new toner cartridge lasts an average of 7, 000 pages for black and 5, 000 pages for each color. 6. 4 MAINTAINING YOUR PRINTER Redistributing the Toner When a toner cartridge is nearly empty, faded or light areas may appear. Equally it is possible that colored images may have incorrect colors due to incorrect mixing of the toner colors when one of the colored toner cartridge is nearly empty. 'Ready [Color] Low Toner' appears on the display. The printer can continue to print using the current toner cartridge until the control panel displays a message telling you to replace the cartridge. You may be able to temporarily improve the print quality by redistributing the toner. The control panel display tells you which color cartridge is low in toner. 1 Using the handle, completely open the left cover until it is at right angles to the main frame and the toner cartridges are ejected. 6 MAINTAINING YOUR PRINTER 6. 5 2 Pull the handle lightly first, and then remove the used toner cartridge holding it. CAUTION: If you open the left cover for a few minutes, the imaging unit can be exposed to light. This causes damage to the imaging unit. 3 Holding both sides of the toner cartridge, gently roll it from side to side to redistribute the toner. NOTE: If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash it in cold water. Hot water sets toner into fabric. 6. 6 MAINTAINING YOUR PRINTER 4 Slide the toner cartridge back into the printer. 5 Close the left cover. Make sure that the cover is securely latched. 6 If you have installed the toner cartridges incorrectly, the left cover will not close properly. Check again to make sure the cartridge colors correspond to those marked on the right hand side. Never use force to close the cover. MAINTAINING YOUR PRINTER 6. 7 Replacing the Toner Cartridges The printer uses four colors and has a different toner cartridge for each one: cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y), and black (K).
