Managing HP LaserJet toner cartridges

It is recommended that you use HP LaserJet toner cartridges. HP has designed the product, toner cartridge, and toner formula to work together to give you optimal image quality and reliability from your product. To order an HP LaserJet toner cartridge, see “Ordering parts” on page 257.

It is very important to replace the toner cartridge when it is near the end of its life, which is often indicated by areas of faded print.

See “To reprint faxes” on page 66 for instructions about attempting to reprint.
