5Plug in the power cord first, then the telephone cord.

Replacing the Toner Cartridge

The machine can print up to 6,000 pages using a high yield toner cartridge. When the toner cartridge is running low, the display shows TONER LOW. The machine is supplied with a standard toner cartridge that must be replaced after approximately 3,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your average document type (i.e., standard letter, detailed graphics).

It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the toner low warning.

Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are not sure of them, consult Brother Customer Service. Be sure to seal the toner cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. When discarding used toner cartridges, keep them separate from domestic garbage.

We recommend that you clean the machine when you replace the toner cartridge.

Toner Empty Indicator

When the toner cartridge is running low, the display shows TONER LOW and the Toner Empty icon on the control panel flashes on and off to indicate the toner is low.

Toner Empty Icon

Display

The Toner Empty icon appears and the display shows TONER EMPTY. Once this icon appears, your machine will not resume printing until you install a new toner cartridge.
