Routine Maintenance

Replacing the Toner

When only a small amount of toner is left inside the machine, the message <Prepare the toner.> is displayed on the screen. Although you may continue printing, it is highly recommended that you prepare to install a new toner cartridge before the toner completely runs out.

When toner runs out completely and prints can no longer be made, the message <Replace the toner.> appears on the touch panel display. Pressing [Recover Later] enables you to continue operations. However, you have to replace the toner cartridge to make further prints.

WARNING

Do not burn or throw used toner cartridges into open flames, as this may cause the toner remaining inside the cartridges to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.

Do not store toner cartridges or paper in places exposed to open flames, as this may cause the toner or paper to ignite, resulting in burns or a fire.

When discarding used toner cartridges, put the cartridges in a bag to prevent the toner remaining inside the cartridges from scattering, and dispose of them in a location away from open flames.
