Error Messages
The following error messages require operator intervention; they are listed numerically.

Meaning: The toner in the printer cartridge is low.

acceptable, press the Continue key to clear the message. Ensure that a new
toner cartridge is available. When the print quality becomes unacceptable, install
the new toner cartridge (see “Changing the Toner Cartridge” on page 140).
Note: If the print quality is unacceptable and you do not have a new toner
cartridge, remove the old cartridge from the printer and gently rock it back and
forth. This may temporarily improve the print quality of the old cartridge.
04 TONER CART MISSING

Action: Open the printer and make sure the toner cartridge is seated correctly. If
you have not installed a toner cartridge, do so now.

current paper size, press the Continue key; otherwise, load the correct paper size
into the bin.
