Redistributing toner

Note

When toner is low, faded or light areas appear on the printed page. You might be able to temporarily improve print quality by redistributing the toner, which means that you might be able to finish the current print job before replacing the print cartridge.

You will feel some resistance when you open the print cartridge door. Opening the print cartridge door conveniently lifts the print cartridge for removal.

CAUTION

To prevent damage, do not expose the print cartridge to light. Cover it with a sheet of paper.

2To redistribute the toner, gently shake the print cartridge from side to side.

CAUTION

If toner gets on your clothing, wipe it off with a dry cloth and wash the clothing in cold water. Hot

3 Reinsert the print cartridge into the printer, and close the print cartridge door.

 

If the print is still light, install a new print cartridge. See Changing the print cartridge for instructions.
